Eliza B. Geer, MD is an endocrinologist at Mount Sinai Medical Center in the Division of Endocrinology with a secondary appointment in the Department of Neurosurgery. After graduating from Columbia University, she attended Mount Sinai School of Medicine, graduating in 2006. Dr. Geer's clinical and research interests include pituitary diseases and neuroendocrinology. She is the principal investigator of a number of studies investigating body composition, adipose tissue regulation, appetite, and long term outcomes in patients with Cushing's Disease and other pituitary diseases. She was awarded the Dr. Harold and Golden Lamport Research Award for Clinical Research in 2012, and the Mount Sinai Endocrinologist of the Year award for outstanding service to the Icahn School of Medicine and Mount Sinai Hospital in 2013.
