Carly Elizabeth Kelley
Assistant Professor of Medicine
I practice general endocrinology, caring for adults with a wide range of hormonal disorders. This includes diabetes mellitus, thyroid disease and cancer, parathyroid disease, reproductive endocrine disorders such as polycystic ovary syndrome, and adrenal disorders. I am certified by the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists to do thyroid ultrasounds and biopsies and run a weekly biopsy clinic at Duke Endocrine South Durham. Additionally, I am the co-Director of the Gender Medicine clinic at Duke where we prescribe gender affirming hormone therapy and work with a multidisciplinary team to assist patients in accessing gender affirming care.
