Salli Lamberth, NP

I'm Salli Lamberth, NP-C, a certified family nurse practitioner who joined Phelps Health in 2020. I see patients of all ages at the Phelps Health Walk-in Clinic – Rolla. My collaborating physician is Jeffery Kerr, DO, medical director of Phelps Health Walk-In Clinic services.

I treat patients of all ages for a variety of conditions, including the common cold, flu, asthma, allergies, minor orthopedic injuries, wound care and more.

When I was a teenager, I worked at a competitive stable. Part of my job was to work closely with veterinarians to care for the horses and to manage their medications. This sparked my interest in medicine. I enrolled in nursing school because I have an outgoing nature and wanted to work with people.  

As a registered nurse, I was most passionate about emergency medicine. I enjoyed the variety of patients and procedures. When I became a nurse practitioner, I discovered that the Walk-In Clinic was similar to the emergency department because every patient who walks through the door is a surprise.

Phelps Health is a great place to receive care. Because so many of our providers are familiar with one another, we can communicate openly and clearly about patient care, resulting in better outcomes.

I always do my best to help patients feel comfortable on what could be a very stressful day. After an appointment, I hope patients feel more at ease and that all their needs were heard. I want my patients to have confidence in the treatment plans we devise together.
