Overview
"Geriatric medicine specialists all have personal stories about why we chose this complex branch of medicine. For me, it was my intergenerational upbringing and immigrant grandmother who always believed I would eventually become her doctor (""mi doctora""). Watching my grandmother and caregiver parents try to navigate the complicated health care system made me passionate about ensuring that the appropriate interprofessional care is delivered to older adults across all settings of care. Getting to share my passion with learners in the classroom, at medical meetings, and at the patient's bedside gives me energy. I hope to pass along my compassion for the unique needs of older adults to my two daughters.".

Duke Endocrinology Clinic - Clinic 1A
For over 30 years, helping patients with metabolic bones diseases (osteoporosis and Paget’s disease of bone) and other disorders of mineral metabolism (vitamin D deficiency and hyperparathyroidism) has been one of the most rewarding parts of my career as a physician. I enjoy helping patients with complicated problems find ways to treat their disease. I have many patients that I have followed for 10 to 20 years, and I highly value the relationship we develop. We now have FDA-approved therapies to treat and prevent fractures in osteoporosis, and reduce pain and disability in Paget’s disease, so it is even more rewarding to help patients decide which treatments are best for them. Dr. Lyles is highly rated in 2 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal Osteoporosis, Fractured Spine, and Decerebrate Posture.
