The joy of being honored to assist in bringing life into the world is also one of Dr. Millner’s most humbling and rewarding parts of her job. She believes in preventative medicine and encourages her families to adopt a healthy lifestyle that is self-sustaining.
Her professional interests and clinical expertise lie in the areas of maternity/newborn care, pediatrics/adolescence, adult medicine and geriatrics. She is an advocate for maternal and birth equity and is active with national medical organizations regarding advocacy for the underserved. Dr. Millner loves interacting with children and teenagers and helping them navigate the many transitions that arise in their young lives.
Dr. Millner served honorably in the United States Army as a Major and Physician from 2012-2021 and has traveled all over the world.
