Kyla joined the VBCH team December 2020 as a Family Nurse Practitioner. Prior to becoming a Nurse Practitioner, she worked at the local nursing home as a Nurse Manager completing the MDS for Medicare, Medicaid and Insurance Reimbursement for almost 9 years, so she has worked with Van Buren County Residents and families for over 10 years. She started as CNA in 2001, obtained her Associate's Degree in 2008 and worked at Blessing Hospital on the Med/Surg units until moving back to Clark County. Kyla was also a traveling nurse for some bigger hospitals in Galesburg and Peoria, Illinois. This allowed her to see so many different diagnosis and cultures along with making friends with some amazing people that she still keep in touch with. When offered the job at Keosauqua Health Care Center (formerly Good Samaritan Society) in 2012, she decided that it would be nice to sleep in her own bed every night.
When Kyla is not at work, she enjoys outside activities with her husband, Rowdy and son, Preston. They live in rural Clark County, Missouri where they have cows and horses. She would ride her horses every day if time and weather allowed. Also, the Yates' are big St. Louis Cardinals fans! Kyla also loves Harry Potter and Grey's Anatomy!
She is able to see patients from birth far into retirement and is certified to complete DOT physicals. "I have not found my exact niche' as far as a Nurse Practitioner, so right now I love seeing anyone and everyone".
Augusta Kincart, PA-C, will see patients of all ages as a Family Medicine PA. She graduated in December 2023 with a master’s in physician assistant studies from the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha, NE.
Prior to attending PA school, Augusta attended Iowa State University where she obtained a bachelor’s degree in biology. While at Iowa State she participated in research studying alternative treatments for Parkinson’s disease with the highly intelligent neuroscientist, Elizabeth Stegemöller, Ph.D.
Augusta was raised in Bloomfield on a family farm and continues to reside there. She looks forward to getting back to her roots and taking care of patients in the surrounding rural areas.
Dr. Sean Brodale was born and raised, with 7 siblings, near Salt Lake City, Utah where he married his high school sweetheart and has 3 children and 6 (almost 7) grandchildren. He moved to the Midwest in 1995 to attend Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine, graduating in 1999. He completed a dual residency in Family Practice and Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine in 2003. He and his wife ran a private practice in Bloomfield, IA until 2016. He then worked in the Fort Madison ED for nearly 10 years. He felt it was time to get “back to his roots” in family medicine and found his way to VBCH. Dr. Brodale enjoys spending time with his family, outdoor activities, hunting and target shooting. He enjoys all aspects of medicine and has special interest in lifestyle medicine and osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMT) and is excited to be here at VBCH.
My favorite part of working at VBCH is the people--both our patients and the staff. I have worked here almost 7 years now, and I am not from Van Buren County. With that being said, I feel I have quickly gotten acquainted with the wonderful people of this community.
