Kerry Knight, PA-C & Trent Knight, PA-C
Optimal Men's Center & Optimal Health and Wellness Center Owners
Kerry Knight, PA-C and her husband Trent Knight PA-C share an enthusiastic passion for helping others. For their individual reasons, both selected the medical field as their chosen career path, as they thrive on giving to those around them, especially within the community where they have practiced, in the West Valley, respectively since 2005 and 2008.
Having met in 2004 while both practicing as Medical Providers in a Federal Correctional Center setting, it was only a matter of time before their mutual admiration and respect grew. In spite of having been actively seeing patients in this challenging environment since 1998, Trent’s display of kindness towards all his patients was apparent. He treated them with genuine dignity regardless of any negative stigma surrounding their incarceration; this behavior left a deep impression on Kerry. For Trent, working alongside Kerry, gave him a glimpse into the strong, compassionate qualities that she continues to effortlessly exhibit to this day.
With a shared fondness and desire to show support to our military, as well as our law enforcement and fire departments, they each continued to observe the dedication and professionalism in the other. Over time, these factors all played a role in setting the stage for their future partnership, both in their medical careers and eventually in marriage.
In 2008 Trent Knight spearheaded the establishment of the City of Goodyear Wellness Clinic. Together he and Kerry worked to ensure that employees for the City of Goodyear, AZ, and their family members, received exceptional preventative care. Additionally, whenever needed, patients also had the comfort of being treated in the Urgent Care setting that Kerry has practiced at in the West Valley since 2005.
Their time with the City of Goodyear Wellness Clinic gave Mr. and Mrs. Knight the ability to practice medicine without the restrictions typically encountered by corporate medicine. The positive health outcomes, particularly with Law Enforcement and Firefighter patients, were a direct result of the professional relationship and trust the patients developed under Trent’s care. Providing treatments within this healthcare model became the springboard for the Knights to embark on starting their own practice as Physician Assistants. This resulted in the subsequent establishment of Optimal Men’s Center in 2019. As a result of the strong connections established, the practice, within a short time, has been able to branch into weight loss, women’s hormonal health and esthetic treatments.
Kerry and Trent Knight are the owners and operators of Optimal Health and Wellness Center with locations in both Goodyear, AZ and Glendale, AZ. They are a husband/wife power couple and well-respected in their community - a true medical dynam
