Kayla Albright, FNP-C

As a family nurse practitioner, Albright helps patients achieve better overall health and establish preventive care plans. Albright earned her bachelor's degree in biology from Eastern Kentucky University with plans to go to medical school before considering a career in nursing. She returned to EKU and graduated in 2015 with a bachelor's degree in nursing and then again in 2020 with a master’s degree in nursing.

After completing her bachelor's degree, Albright worked at trauma centers at UK Healthcare in Lexington, and Marcum and Wallace Hospital in Irvine. Upon graduating with her master's degree, she moved into private family practice at the Estill Medical Clinic. Her experience working in rural Kentucky has provided Albright with different patient experiences that have helped her fine-tune her practice methods and communication skills while focusing on the kind of provider she wants to be.

I always try to educate my patients while helping them feel comfortable in a clinical care setting, said Albright. I want to be a provider that can help them accomplish their goals; I never want to be a revolving door.
