Kaylene Millard, PA-C

Kaylene Millard is a certified physician assistant practicing with CloseKnit at 5530 Wisconsin Avenue in Chevy Chase. She studied nutrition at the University of Florida before completing physician assistant training at Wake Forest University in 2012, and has worked in both primary care and emergency medicine.

Why patients choose Kaylene Millard

Physician assistants complete a graduate-level medical program and national certification, and in primary care they handle the bulk of what most patients actually come in for: physicals, acute illness, medication management, and chronic condition follow-up. Practically, booking with a PA is often the difference between being seen this week and being seen next month.

Her particular combination is worth noting. An emergency-medicine background sharpens the instinct for what genuinely cannot wait, while a nutrition degree brings substance to the diet, weight, and metabolic conversations that most fifteen-minute visits skip entirely.
