About the Provider
Makaba Kone, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, first earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing at the University of Delaware in Newark in 2009. After caring for patients as a registered nurse for several years, Makaba returned to the University of Delaware in 2017 to complete her Master of Science in Nursing, Family Nurse Practitioner. Makaba joined Kelsey-Seybold as an Internal Medicine nurse practitioner in December 2024.
Makaba was inspired to enter the medical field by her family doctor and her experiences caring for her grandmother. With extensive experience as both a registered nurse and nurse practitioner in acute care hospitals, long-term care homes, and clinics, Makaba has a deep understanding of how important it is to involve her patients in their treatment in order to achieve positive health outcomes. She sees adult patients for both well care and sick care, diagnosing and treating chronic and acute illnesses and injuries such as rheumatoid arthritis, flu, joint pain, and more. Her clinical interests include Infusion therapy and Gerontology, and her favorite part of caring for patients is seeing her patients smile.

Makaba builds trust with patients by showing them that she hears them and is there for them. She works together with her patients to deliver high-quality care and achieve the best outcomes possible.
