About me

Suzanne Kavet has a master’s degree in education from Lesley University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, as well as a master’s degree in nursing from Northeastern University in Boston, MA. Before becoming a nurse practitioner, she worked as a counselor for children and families. Suzanne Kavet has always specialized in pediatrics and worked at Boston Children’s Hospital for many years, eventually specializing in ambulatory gastroenterology. She also worked for seven years caring for children with complex medical needs, living in foster homes.

She loves working with children because of the joy they bring to the present moment. Pediatrics also presents the opportunity to integrate family and psycho-social dynamics and into assessment and treatment.
The cumulative result of her background in counselling combined with her skills as a pediatric nurse practitioner have prepared her to work with families and their children delivering holistic and comprehensive care.

Ms. Kavet spends her free time learning ballroom dance, salsa and west coast swing with her husband, sampling Portland’s diverse restaurants and spending time with her two young grandchildren.

Insurance

Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher. Visit the billing and insurance section of our site for more information.
