Sherita Golden, M.D., MHS

Dr. Golden
Dr. Sherita Golden sees patients at the Diabetes Center once a week.  She developed an interest in diabetes at the beginning of her medical career, while attending the University of Virginia School of Medicine.  Her interest in diabetes further developed during her residency and fellowship here at Johns Hopkins.  Since joining the faculty, she has developed a very active clinical and research career.   

As part of our team of endocrinologists, Dr. Golden sees all types of diabetes patients.  As the endocrinologist in the Ciccarone Preventive Cardiology Center, she has a specific interest and expertise in the management of patients whose diabetes is complicated by cardiovascular disease.  She also has a special interest in Cystic Fibrosis-Related Diabetes.

Dr. Golden is also an active researcher in the field of diabetes epidemiology. She is particularly interested in investigating hormonal risk factors associated with the development of type 2 diabetes.  Her current research focuses on measuring the hormone response to depression and chronic stress to determine if these are risk factors for diabetes. 

If you have diabetes and would like to schedule a new patient appointment with Dr. Golden please call (410) 955-9270 or if you would like to find out more about her research click Here.
