Erica Weitzner

Erica Weitzner, MD is a member of Summit Health's Endocrinology team. Dr. Weitzner treats a variety of conditions related to the endocrine system, including (but not limited to) thyroid disease, adrenal disease, hypertension, and neuroendocrine disorders. She has extensive training in treating type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and diabetes during pregnancy.<br />
<br />
Dr. Weitzner makes it her mission to stay up to date on new treatments and technology and is always looking for ways her patients can incorporate technology into their daily routines. Additionally, she has a special interest in transgender medicine and supports a person’s option to choose the gender they feel most comfortable presenting to those around them.<br />
<br />
Dr. Weitzner’s love for science, mathematics, and learning how things work led her to the vast field of endocrinology, a discipline that attempts to understand the connection to and interaction of endocrine glands and hormones with the rest of the body. She says, “Endocrinology felt like such a natural extension of what I already loved, weaving together biochemistry, genetics, and biology for the benefit of patient care.” She adds, “Patients with endocrine disorders need very specialized, individual care, and I make sure they receive that during a visit with me and throughout their treatment plan.”<br />

When not caring for patients, Dr. Weitzner enjoys knitting, baking, spending time with family and friends, and attending shows on Broadway.
