Summary

  • Dr. Demidont, an AMAB, transfeminine identifying, androgynously expressing, Queer Radical Witch, completed medical school in 2000 at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, her Internal Medicine Residency at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center - Pinnacle Health and her fellowship in Infectious Diseases and Epidemiology at Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center. Dr. Demidont is certified in Internal Medicine and Infectious Diseases as well as a HIV specialist by the AAHIVM.
    She is the Principal Medical Scientist for HIV Prevention for Gilead Sciences, Inc. covering New England and Upstate NY.
    Before the transition to industry in February of 2020, Dr. Demidont was the founder and the CMO of Anchor Health Initiative (AHI), a non-profit LGBTQ healthcare organization with offices and Stamford and Hamden, CT. AHI was founded with the mission to create a new LGBTQ Primary Healthcare model for Connecticut and to empower Queer people in all aspects of their lives. She is an Assistant Clinical Professor of Medicine at Quinnipiac University's Frank H. Netter School of Medicine and serves as a member of several HIV prevention taskforces in Connecticut including Connecticut's "Getting to Zero" commission and as a member of Yale University's Center for Interdisciplinary Research on AIDS New England Implementation Science Network. She lectures for the DPH on HIV prevention strategies and the NEAETC regarding culturally competent care for TGNC Individuals and has lectured internationally on ways to improve healthcare for the LGBT community.
    She hopes to expand her reach in the field of HIV prevention at Gilead and one day hopes to see the end of the HIV epidemic.
    Dr. Demidont is a mother to four fur babies, avid runner, music lover, technology enthusiast, make-up and beauty product fanatic, vocal political activist, and militant psychic witch who's primary purpose in life is to leave the world a little safer for Queer than it was when she arrived.
