Education:
Dr. Kasteel (KK) received her Bachelor of Science from Simon Fraser University, and her MD from UBC in Vancouver. She completed her specialty in Emergency Medicine at the University of British Columbia and works full time as an emergency physician at Royal Columbian hospital, and is also Clinical Instructor with the UBC Faculty of Medicine.
I’m a Pediatrician, aesthetic physician, educator, and mom of four — and I feel incredibly fortunate to do work that I genuinely love.
I completed my medical degree and specialty training in Pediatrics at the University of British Columbia, and currently practice as a Consultant Pediatrician in Vancouver and at Richmond Hospital. I also provide care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at BC Women’s Hospital, where I care for some of our tiniest and most vulnerable patients. In addition, I serve as a Clinical Instructor in the Department of Pediatrics at UBC and as a Neonatal Resuscitation Instructor.
Throughout my career, I’ve always been drawn to areas of medicine that combine science, precision, connection, and compassion — which is what ultimately led me to aesthetic and procedural medicine.
At Emerge Wellness, I’m excited to offer pediatric skin consultations for concerns such as acne and eczema, alongside aesthetic treatments including injections and other cosmetic procedures for adults of all ages. I’m passionate about helping patients feel comfortable, confident and healthy in their own skin, whether that means supporting a child struggling with eczema, guiding a teen through acne treatment, or helping adults achieve refreshed, natural-looking results.
My approach is thoughtful, comprehensive, and patient-centered. I believe aesthetic medicine should enhance your natural features while still feeling authentically you. Above all, I want every patient to feel heard, respected, and cared for.
Outside of medicine, life is wonderfully busy. My husband and I are raising four amazing kids and two very large dogs, and as a family we love spending time outdoors, travelling, staying active, and finding as many reasons to laugh together as possible.
I look forward to welcoming you to Emerge Wellness and to the privilege of being part of your care journey.
