Loretta Duggan, HER Health
Dr. Loretta Duggan, born and raised in rural central Georgia, is a board-certified physician in both Family Medicine and Adolescent Medicine practicing since 2017. She previously trained at Mercer University before completing medical school at Morehouse School of Medicine. From there she completed Family Medicine Residency in Spartanburg, SC, and Adolescent Medicine fellowship training  in Miami, FL before returning to Georgia. Although she enjoys seeing patients of all ages, her passion lies in serving teens and young adult women ages 11-26 years old on the topics of puberty, periods, reproductive and sexual health so they can live the life they choose! This has led Dr. Duggan to open her own private medical practice called HER Health located in Athens, Georgia.
