About Me

I’m Lisa Cunningham, FNP-C, and I started practicing as a family nurse practitioner at Phelps Health in 2019. My collaborating physician is Jeffery Kerr, DO, medical director of Walk-In Clinic services. I have worked for the organization since 2005, previously as a registered nurse (RN) with the Pain Management Center and Ambulatory Surgery Unit (ASU). I enjoy caring for seniors but can see patients of all ages. 

As a Walk-In Clinic provider, I see patients for common ailments including sprains, strains, simple fractures, rashes, strep throats, urinary tract infections (UTIs) and upper respiratory infections.

My parents were both medical professionals, which sparked my initial interest in medicine. I also knew I wanted to help people. I subscribe to the golden rule of medicine: treat patients the way you would want to be treated.

I am proud to be a Rolla native, and enjoy hiking, camping and traveling.

When I arrived there was no one waiting in the registration area and there was a woman sitting at the first registration booth. I sat down in front of her and waited. She was working on the computer so I patiently waited for her to finish. She never looked at me or greeted me or indicated it was going to be a bit, or anything. She totally ignored me. I was having trouble hearing due to ear infections, apparently the woman at the next booth said she would help me but until she stuck her head around the divider, I didn't know she was there and was trying to get my attention. Through all of this, the first lady continued to ignore me instead of letting me know the other lady would help me. She really came across as rude, when a smile, a simple greeting and instruction (ie; saying please go to the next booth) would have been appreciated. The 2nd lady that registered me was friendly and engaging. The rest of my visit was good.

Another waiting area for people who arnt sick with something contagious. A kids play area. Outdoor seating. I waited 3 hours to only be seen for 15 minutes as all she had to do was look in my ear and prescribe medication. I understand waiting in line but I didn't need tests or anything that took a lot of time so it would have been nice to be seen quicker since it was a quick visit. I had to bring 3 kids with me while the waiting room was full of sick people with masks on. We sat outside on the sidewalk waiting. I was able to have someone come pick my kids up after an hour but I still had a baby and waited outside of the waiting room to hopefully not catch a sickness while waiting.

The wait time was 3.5 hours just to be called back, which was worse than the ER visit my granddaughter took later that evening. The front desk said there was a wait but never said how long it actually was. We waited in our car to minimize our exposure since we were there for possible strep throat. We tried called multiple times to get an update on the time, and they never answered.

My need for treatment occurred during a holiday weekend so things were slow because of staff shortage. With this in mind, it took much longer than expected to be seen by the PA plus the time of day encompassed the lunch hour. Other than this, I am very satisfied with the treatment that took place and the ease of getting a prescription filled within the same building as I am from out of town.

The front desk person shouldn't be treating people as if there's an issue with them walking into the clinic and being rude. A parent of another patient stopped me outside of this visit and apologized for how rude the receptionist was to me and my children and said she's experienced similar behavior from this woman. The physician was very kind, however, she forgot to date two of my children's physicals. Multiple athletes from the league my children participate in have also been sent back to get their physicals dated that visited your facility.
