Bio & Overview

Pooja Choudhari, MD, (pronouns: she/her) is a pediatric endocrinologist who treats children and teens with endocrine disorders, including type 1 and type 2 diabetes, thyroid disease, pituitary disorders, and adrenal disorders.

She also cares for young people with endocrine disorders caused by cystic fibrosis, as well as sexual development and puberty issues.

“It’s important to spend time to address the concerns of children and families,” she says. “My medical practice is rooted in evidence-based medicine, but children’s and families’ perspectives are vital.”
