Leila Djerdjour

Background:

I was born and raised in Plattsburgh, NY, and started my undergraduate studies in Montreal, Canada, before transferring to Clemson University (Go Tigers!). I went on to complete medical school at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine Greenville

Outside Interests and Hobbies:

Outside of medicine, I love staying active through running and hot yoga. I’m passionate about travel and make frequent trips to Algeria to visit my family. I adopted my cat, Habanero, during medical school & he’s been the sweetest companion. I also am usually on the hunt for a cozy local coffee shop and an overpriced latte I’ll absolutely justify.

Interests within Emergency Medicine:

Health Policy, Global Health, Sports Medicine and pediatrics! (lots of interests hence going into EM)
