Congratulations to Dr. Kayla Patel

Dr. Kayla Patel is a first-year endocrinology fellow at Emory University. She grew up in Marietta, GA, and has completed her medical training throughout the state of Georgia. She first became interested in endocrinology when she started to work in the Bone and Body Composition lab at the University of Georgia (Go Dawgs!). Her specific interests in the field include bone health, transgender medicine, and addressing disparities in diabetes. As the AACE fellow representative, she will serve as a voice for her co-fellows nationwide and help increase awareness of endocrine resources among non-endocrine colleagues.
