About me
Lisa Boyle, MD, is a board-certified surgeon at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital, specializing in thyroid and parathyroid surgeries. Dr. Boyle is also the hospital's vice president of medical affairs and chief medical officer, overseeing physicians, medical affairs, and quality and safety.
Before coming to MedStar Georgetown, Dr. Boyle spent 20 years at MedStar Washington Hospital Center, where she performed an average of 350 surgeries per year. Because she considers herself a physician and surgeon first, Dr. Boyle continues to treat patients and perform nearly 200 surgeries per year at MedStar Georgetown in addition to her administrative responsibilities. Dr. Boyle partners with patients and colleagues alike, focusing on shared decision-making and a collaborative approach to care.
Dr. Boyle is also actively involved in research in the areas of thyroid disease and thyroid cancer. A grant from a former patient provides funding for a full-time research fellow to study innovative treatments for thyroid cancer, including medications used to treat HIV.
