Today, we are thrilled to announce that Kristin Casey will become our next Medical Director, officially joining the Camp One Step team on April 6, 2026.
Kristin brings an exceptional depth of experience to this role. For the past 22 years, she has served as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner at American Family Children's Hospital (UW Health Kids) in Madison, Wisconsin, specializing in general oncology, neuro-oncology, and leading the Caring for Life Survivor Clinic. Kristin has a proven track record of leading interdisciplinary teams, developing innovative care programs, contributing to clinical trials, and championing patient advocacy.
Susie Burke shares these words about Kristin. “I first met Kristin when she volunteered at Camp One Step in the early 2000s, and I was immediately impressed by her knowledge, skill, and compassion. Over the past 20 years, she has earned the deep trust of patients, families, and colleagues through her exceptional care and leadership. As I transition the Medical Director role to Kristin, I do so with complete confidence in her leadership, clinical judgment, and commitment to excellence. I am genuinely excited for the future of the medical program under her direction.”
