Kayla Harris, DO specializes in family medicine at Allina Health Eagan Clinic.
What is your practice philosophy? I believe a personal connection ultimately leads to better care and trust between patients and their providers, so I strive to know my patients on a personal level.
Hometown: Andover, Minnesota
What are you passionate about? And why? Being outdoors – I think it is important to find something that recharges you personally. For me, that is being outside. Whether that is sitting on a patio, going to the lake, hiking, fishing or camping, the outdoors is where I feel most connected and fulfilled.
If I wasn’t a provider, I would be a: Travel planner – I love traveling, exploring different cultures and finding interesting locations and destinations. My attention to detail, and desire to help people, would translate well into planning trips for others.
Why did you become a provider? When did you know this was the career for you? I chose to become a provider because I enjoy connecting with people, and working together for solutions that help lead to healthier lifestyles and positive life outcomes.
My personal health goal is: To stay active every day, whether that is going on a hike, exploring a lake or river in a kayak, taking a walk with my family or choosing the stairs instead of the elevator!
