Division of Pediatric Endocrinology is comprised of faculty who are engaged in high quality research, provide excellent clinical care and are committed to the teaching the next generation of physicians.
The division was established by Dr. Lawson Wilkins, a pioneer in pediatric endocrinology, whose trainees went on to establish divisions of pediatric endocrinology around the globe. The world’s first pediatric endocrine clinic was founded at the Harriett Lane Home, now the Harriet Lane Clinic, where our division is proud to continue to see patients. Dr. Wilkins was known for being a meticulous researcher, an warm clinician and dedicated teacher of medical students, residents and fellows.
