About Allison R Kalil, PA-C

Allison Kalil, a board-certified physician assistant, is joining the staff at The Elliot Heart and Vascular Center. She earned her Bachelor of Science and Master of Health Science from Quinnipiac University in Hamden, Connecticut.

Allison has spent almost twenty years working as a physician assistant on various surgical teams within Elliot Health System and Massachusetts General Hospital. She has managed patients in cardiac, thoracic, vascular, general, trauma and acute care surgery. Having the opportunity to work in so many subspecialties has expanded her knowledge and skill set and made her a more well-rounded provider.

Now, working in cardiac surgery at The Elliot Heart and Vascular Center, she is able to directly impact her patients’ well-being through life-saving procedures.  Allison truly enjoys the work, explaining that “the complexity of the human heart, combined with the critical nature of cardiac surgery, creates an intellectually stimulating and highly rewarding area of medicine.”

Allison sees the ideal patient/provider relationship as one built on trust and communication. She says, “With these principles, I am able to listen to a patient’s concerns, collaborate with them, and help make informed decisions about their treatment plans.”

When she is not working, Allison enjoys spending time with her two children attending their various school and sporting events.
