On August 15, 2026, Kelly Collaborative Medicine marked its tenth anniversary with a celebration at MLK Park. Team members and community participants gathered to recognize a milestone for the Silver Spring, Maryland, practice led by Dr. Kathryn Kelly.

It was a chance to step outside the everyday work of the clinic, spend time together, and thank the people who have helped shape Kelly Collaborative Medicine along the way.

A Celebration at MLK Park

Matching purple anniversary shirts, an outdoor group photo, and a gathering around the park pavilion brought the occasion to life. A popcorn and cotton-candy table and an inflatable play structure added to the relaxed, family-friendly setting.

The photographs from the day capture people gathering, sharing conversation, and celebrating together. They offer a glimpse of the connections behind the practice, beyond the appointment schedule and the clinic walls.

Ten Years of Patient-Centered Care

Kelly Collaborative Medicine's approach to primary care is built around listening, respect, and collaboration. The practice serves the Silver Spring community through care that includes annual physicals, sick visits, and chronic illness management, with an emphasis on open communication and helping patients feel heard.

An anniversary is also an opportunity to recognize the people behind that work. We are grateful to our clinical and administrative team members, to the patients who place their trust in us, and to the community connections that continue to support the practice.

To everyone who helped organize the August celebration or joined us at MLK Park, thank you for making the occasion special.
