Get to know Allergist & Immunologist Dr. Brynn Everist, who serves patients in Prairie Village, Kansas.

A dedicated allergist & immunologist, Dr. Everist will soon be opening her private practice in Prairie Village, Kansas. Her primary goal is to improve the quality of life for her patients. She places a high value on her patients’ time, and finds the greatest satisfaction in providing patient-centered care and fostering strong physician-patient relationships. 

Her patients appreciate her listening skills and ability to take the time to understand their unique symptoms and lifestyles. This approach allows her to tailor treatment plans to the individual, ensuring that they are effective, safe, and easy to adhere to.

Born and raised in Kansas City, Dr. Everist’s educational path took her to Boston College (B.A. in Theology), back to Kansas City (M.D. at The University of Kansas School of Medicine), off to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota (Residency in Pediatrics), and back again to Kansas City (The University of Kansas, Fellowship in Allergy and Immunology). Also along that path was time practicing pediatrics in San Francisco as husband (another KU School of Medicine grad) completed his training in musculoskeletal radiology. Since the prairie has always called her back, Dr. Everist has decided that it would be fitting to name her practice “Prairie Allergy”.

Subsequent to her education, Dr. Everist attained board certification in allergy & immunology through the American Board of Allergy and Immunology (ABAI). The mission of the ABAI is to improve the quality of medical care by the development and utilization of professional and educational standards for the initial certification and maintenance of certification of physician specialists in allergy and immunology.

Allergy and immunology involves the management of disorders related to the immune system. These conditions range from very common problems (hay-fever, food allergies, and asthma) to very rare conditions (congenital immunodeficiencies). Whether common or rare, allergy and immunological disorders are frequently chronic and always frustrating. They span all ages and affect multiple organ systems. This is why Dr. Everist believes that a therapeutic plan must be personalized to include lifestyle, life plans, and the broad picture of your health.   

In order to remain up to date in her field, Dr. Everist is an active member of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, and is a board member of the Greater Kansas City Allergy Society.

Dr. Everist is also deeply committed to charitable and philanthropic endeavors. She has traveled on multiple medical missions to countries such as Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Thailand, and Zambia.

When not in the office, she enjoys spending time with her husband, who is a musculoskeletal radiologist at KUMC, and their three children. In her free time, she enjoys a variety of hobbies, including running, cooking, traveling, entertaining at home, sewing, and gardening.
