As Director of the Telehealth Program at Cancer Treatment Centers of America® (CTCA), Dr. Chevon Rariy is responsible for developing the launch and implementation of new telehealth offerings across all specialties and services. Dr. Rariy also serves as Medical Director of Endocrinology at CTCA® Chicago, overseeing the diagnosis and treatment of a range of endocrine disorders and dysfunctions. The endocrine system is a collection of hormone-producing glands that regulate the body. The body's endocrine system includes the pancreas, thyroid, parathyroid, pineal, hypothalamus, adrenal and pituitary glands, ovaries and testes. The body relies on endocrine glands to regulate metabolism, reproductive function, overall development, sleep, mood, blood pressure, bone health and body temperature, among a number of other things.
“Working with a multidisciplinary team, I am focused on the endocrine needs of cancer patients and treatment-related side effect management,” says Dr. Rariy. “Some issues I help address include thyroid dysfunction, thyroid cancer, diabetes management, adrenal and pituitary dysfunction and/or tumors, calcium and parathyroid disorders, osteoporosis, hypertension, weight management, and endocrine-related side effects of cancer treatment.” Dr. Rariy also collaborates with CTCA® doctors and clinicians to initiate endocrine oncology-related research and clinical trial opportunities focused on endocrine tumors, precision medicine and genetic testing. Dr. Rariy is seeing patients face-to-face at the Chicago hospital and is providing telehealth services to our hospitals in Atlanta, Tulsa and Phoenix to deliver timely, quality care and meet the needs of CTCA patients.
Dr. Rariy joined the CTCA Chicago hospital in September 2019. Board certified in internal medicine, endocrinology, diabetes and metabolism, Dr. Rariy is dedicated to using advanced techniques and tools. She is a member of several professional organizations, including American Diabetes Association, Endocrine Society and American Telemedicine Association.
Dr. Rariy received a Bachelor of Science degree in biology with a minor in chemistry from Duke University.
