About Dr. Anderson
Inspired by the physicians who treated her sister, Kiesha Anderson, DO, decided she wanted to become a physician when she was a child. “My sister had developmental delay and seizures as a young child and her pediatrician helped her and my family focus on providing her with a good quality of life, despite her physical limitations,” she says.

“Some of these conditions are challenging to diagnose, because the symptoms can start off vague,” Dr. Anderson says, adding, “but I am passionate about doing my best to give a proper diagnosis to allow for appropriate management of these challenging an...

“Some of these conditions are challenging to diagnose, because the symptoms can start off vague,” Dr. Anderson says, adding, “but I am passionate about doing my best to give a proper diagnosis to allow for appropriate management of these challenging and usually life-long conditions.”
She studied at Butler University (Indiana), where she earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. Dr. Anderson completed her residency in neurology and fellowship in neurophysiology at Indiana University.
In working with patients, Dr. Anderson tries her best to practice medicine in a way that makes patients feel their issues are heard and acknowledged. “My philosophy is to know the concerns and issues for that individual patient so that I may run the best tests to give them a properly answered diagnosis and treatment for their condition,” she says.
Dr. Anderson hopes her patients learn from her that she and other physicians truly want to improve their quality of life and that they are present to serve their health needs.
