Alexandra Aguilar, MD

Description

My clinical interests include juvenile diabetes, thyroid disease, growth disorders such as short stature, disorders of puberty, obesity,  and PCOS. I went into medicine to take care of children. I always strive to give children the best care including providing comprehensive diagnosis, treatment and management of complex hormonal problems. Hormonal disorders at times can be complex and challenging, not only to me as a provider but for the family as well. It is a great privilege for me as a physician to be a part of this journey with them. I want to be able to help them and learn from their experiences as well. My goal is to develop lasting connections with our patients and their families. My special interest is in juvenile diabetes. I always believe that it is important to empower and educate the patients and the families to be active participants in their care. I am also particularly interested in the use of technology to improve diabetes care and control.
