Dr. McKeon has also received the Subspecialty Certificate in Orthopaedic Surgery of the Hand, which is for board-certified orththopaedic surgeons who have demonstrated qualifications in hand surgery beyond those expected of other orthopaedic surgeons by virtue of additional training and a practice characterized by volume and diversity of cases in hand surgery or have made significant contributions to this field.

In her five years at Andrews Sports Medicine, Dr. McKeon has received numerous accolades, including: Top Women in Medicine (B-Metro Magazine, 2018 & 2017), Rising Stars in Health Care (2016-Birmingham Business Journal). In addition, Dr. McKeon has been recognized by her colleagues as one of Birmingham's Top Doctors in two categories: Hand Surgeon and Hand Surgeon-Pediatrics (from 2015-2018). The peer-review survey was completed by Birmingham-area physicians asking whom they would recommend, other than themselves, if in need of professional care or advice.

As a hand specialist, Dr. McKeon treats carpal tunnel syndrome, trigger finger, arthritis, finger/hand/wrist fractures, nail bed injuries, nerve lacerations, soft tissue injuries, Dupuytrens contracture and ganglion cysts to name just a few. She serves as the team physician for Bessemer Academy.

Dr. McKeon's research interests include sports-related injuries of the hand and wrist. She has published numerous peer-reviewed scientific articles, review articles and book chapters over the past several years. She's also given poster and podium presentations at several national meetings. She was a recipient of the Resident Research Award at Washington University in St. Louis in 2013 as well as a Leonard Goldner Award semi-finalist at the AOFAS meeting in 2011.

Dr. McKeon earned her Bachelor of Arts degree from Yale University, graduating with honors. While at Yale, she was a four-year varsity letterman in springboard and platform diving.

She completed a residency in orthopaedic survey at Washington University in St. Louis and a fellowship in hand surgery at Vanderbilt University in Nashville.

Dr. McKeon says she chose to specialize in hands because they are vital for performing everyday tasks both at home and at work. "Being able to restore function to patients' hands and give them back their ability to work, care for their families and do the activities that they enjoy is immensely rewarding."
