She is known for her surgical precision, leadership, and individualized, patient-centered care. Through oncoplastic and hidden-scar techniques, nerve-sparing and sensory restoration procedures, and close collaboration with multidisciplinary specialists, Dr. Milburn is committed to achieving the best possible cancer outcomes while preserving body image and quality of life. This includes the development of a comprehensive breast program to support patients through every stage of their cancer journey.

Philosophy of Care
“I am passionate about helping my patients navigate their breast cancer journey by providing the highest level of evidence-based multidisciplinary care in a compassionate environment while ensuring they feel empowered and supported through every step of their treatment and healing. I focus on the whole person and not just their cancer. As a woman, working mom, and breast surgeon, I bring both professional expertise and personal understanding to my practice, and I am continually inspired by my patients’ strength, resilience, and grace.”
