Wednesday, August 21, will be my last day with Kelsey-Seybold Clinic. For more information, read my departure letter here.

Dr. Sarah Nadeem, FACE, earned her medical degree in 2002 from Aga Khan University, Medical College in Karachi, Pakistan. In 2007, she completed her Internal Medicine residency at Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, Michigan, and her Endocrinology fellowship in 2009 at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Her desire to help people and building relationships with people inspired her to pursue medicine as her career.

Board certified in endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism, Dr. Nadeem takes a patient-centered, collaborative, and scientific approach to her practice. She focuses on the patient’s medical history and concerns to help improve their quality of life and to formulate a treatment plan. She treats patients 18 years of age and older for endocrine disorders and medical conditions, including Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, thyroid disorders, and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Her clinical interests include diabetes management, osteoporosis, and obesity management.
