After graduating from college, I was awarded a Fulbright fellowship and moved to Dublin, Ireland to work for the European Institute of Women’s Health. Shuffling between Birmingham and Boston for my medical training, I have settled in beautiful North Carolina with my husband who is a fellow in Hematology/Oncology at the University of North Carolina. We are enjoying the cultural richness of the Triangle area and the diverse landscape of North Carolina. Being a part of Duke’s amazing medical community has allowed me to pursue my clinical interest in complex medical dermatology and my translational research interest in neutrophilic skin diseases such as psoriasis and hidradenitis suppurativa. I am actively working on projects that focus on antibody-based therapies targeting immune dysregulation in skin disease.  The most gratifying experiences for me as a physician have been providing treatment and support to patients struggling with skin diseases and contributing to improvements in their overall quality of life. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, painting and making jewelry. Dr. Jaleel is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Hidradenitis Suppurativa. Her top areas of expertise are Hidradenitis Suppurativa, Dissecting Cellulitis of the Scalp, Pyoderma Gangrenosum, and Vitiligo.
