Kalynn Salcedo, PA-C

For Kalynn C. Salcedo, PA-C, nothing is more rewarding than helping a patient reach their health goals. And the best outcomes, she said, start with a foundation built on trust.
"Office visits with me are usually relaxed and easygoing," said Salcedo, a physician assistant who specializes in diabetes and endocrinology at Methodist Physicians Clinic. "I want you to be comfortable to be open and honest when you come in to see me. There's no judgement for what's going on in your life. I'm here to help and guide you to achieve your goals."
Salcedo knows no two patients or care plans are the same, all the more reason to establish a meaningful relationship.
"I'm all about coming up with a plan that fits the needs of the patient," she said. "Providers need to know what's going on in the patient's life and what's hindering them from taking control of their health so we can work on improving those behaviors or finding a plan that fits within their lifestyle."
With a team around her that's …devoted to Methodist's values, Salcedo believes she's in the right environment to help patients improve their health.
"When I think of The Meaning of Care, I think about putting the patient first," she said. "We have a team in our clinic that works together to achieve a common goal of doing what's best for the patient."
A Nebraska native, Salcedoenjoys spending time with her family and friends. She likes to be outdoors playing volleyball, golfing or doing something more relaxing like camping or boating.
