Overview
Dr. Alejandra Borensztein is a triple board-certified endocrinologist serving patients in the Philadelphia and South Jersey region, including Cherry Hill, Haddonfield, and Collingswood, NJ.
She has practiced general endocrinology since 2014, beginning her career in the New York City area before relocating to the Philadelphia region, where she has held positions at Penn Medicine and in private practice.
Dr. Borensztein specializes in the full spectrum of endocrine conditions — including thyroid disorders, diabetes, metabolic bone disease, and PCOS — and recognized early in her career that lasting hormonal health often requires addressing weight and lifestyle alongside traditional endocrine management. That insight led her to pursue formal training in obesity medicine; she became a Diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine (DABOM) in 2022.
In 2025, she expanded her expertise further, earning certification as a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP) — one of a small number of endocrinologists in the region to hold all three certifications simultaneously.
She is the founder of Healthy You Endocrinology & Weight Loss in Collingswood, NJ, a direct care practice offering longer appointments, same-week availability, and 24/7 direct physician access — without the 3–6 month waits typical of traditional endocrinology practices.
Dr. Borensztein is highly rated in 6 conditions, according to our data. Her clinical expertise encompasses Type 2 Diabetes (T2D), Hypercalcemia, Hypothyroidism, Hyperparathyroidism, and Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).
Dr. Borensztein is board certified in Endocrinology And Metabolism, Diplomate Of The American Board Of Obesity Medicine, Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, and Internal Medicine.
