Dr. M. Jennifer Abuzzahab

Contributing Writer, SoundMedicine.org

M. Jennifer Abuzzahab, MD, is a Pediatric Endocrinologist at the McNeely Pediatric Diabetes Center and Endocrine Clinic at Children's Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota. She has been working in Pediatric Endocrinology for 17 years. Endocrinology is the study of hormones—or the chemical text messages that are sent throughout your body. She is an unapologetic science nerd, and is passionate about pediatric obesity, growth disorders, endocrine consequences of cancer survival and endocrine disruptors. She is active in research; however, spends the majority of her time in clinic. She sees Sound Medicine as an opportunity to share her clinical experience with people who are not her patients.
