Kevin Huynh, Physician Assistant
I received my master’s degree at the University of Colorado Child Health Associate/Physician Assistant (CHA/PA) Program. I completed my bachelor of science in human biology and bachelor of arts in art history and criticism at the University of California, San Diego. Before moving to Colorado, I spent two years as an EMT and two years as a TMS technician.

I believe that although many individuals may present with similar symptoms, the causes and circumstances affecting those symptoms will vary greatly and will require unique approaches. I enjoy working with patients to find the perfect balance between physical, social, and emotional well-being. I offer medication management, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), ADHD testing, and genetic testing. I have a special interest in LGBTQ+, adult, and geriatric populations.
