As a Board-Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist, her career has focused on general orthopedics and sports medicine, treating everyone from competitive athletes to weekend warriors.
Dr. McMillen values the personalized 1:1 care model at Light the Lamp PT, which allows for deeper patient relationships and the ability to truly address the root cause of injury or discomfort. She has a special interest in health, movement, and nutrition, and recently completed a vestibular competency program, expanding her expertise in treating balance and dizziness-related conditions.
A dedicated mentor to students and new grads, Dr. McMillen enjoys guiding the next generation of physical therapists with the same care and enthusiasm she gives her patients.

We operate as a hybrid practice. A hybrid model means we offer the best of both worlds: cash-based care and insurance-based care, because we’re in network with one of the most popular insurance carriers in the area. This structure lets us deliver the kind of high-touch, high-quality therapy people typically only find in out-of-network clinics… while still remaining accessible for those who use insurance.
In the state of Pennsylvania, you do NOT need a prescription to start physical therapy if your PT has their direct access certificate. This is regardless of being in or out of network with your insurance.
Nope! All sessions are 1:1 with Doctors of Physical Therapy.
Yes, we do. From concussions and vertigo, to surgery and overuse injuries, we have 2 decades of experience to help you meet your goals.
