Meet our Team
Ketotic Hypoglycemia has expanded from one mothers dream to a global reaching patient organization thanks to dedicated volunteers from all over the world. From the patients and caregivers stepping up and donating their spare-time to initiate and engage in research activities, planning conferences and supporting each-other in our peer-to peer group, to industry partners and leading hypoglycemia experts from the field of pediatric endocrinology and inborn error of metabolism. Let us introduce you to our team!

What Our Experts Say About Us
Expert Testimonials
While I was not successful in finding answers for all of the children who suffer from ketotic hypoglycemia, we now have Ketotic Hypoglycemia International. These children deserve to get answers and they deserve proper treatment.
Dr. David WeinsteinPassage Bio 
This organization held its 1st meeting this year virtually and a full 2 day program brought together parents, patients, families and doctors to discuss ketotic hypoglycemia. This meeting has demonstrated a large gap in knowledge, research, resources and support for families with this rare condition.
Dr. Paul ThorntonCooks Childrens Hospital, Texas 
Ketotic Hypoglycemia International has been initiating research projects, where patients, caregivers, and
medical experts worked together towards greater knowledge, awareness, and research into unexplained
ketotic hypoglycemia. This level of dedication, initiative, and leadership from a rare disease organization
has been recognized in both national media in Denmark, international press releases, and by stakeholders
across the world.
Dr. Thomas SenderovitzNovo Nordisk 
KHI currently stands as a model organization when it comes to uniting health care professionals from various disciplines with patients and their families and other stakeholders to advance research, knowledge and information in rare conditions and their management.
Dr. Anders GreenSteno Diabetes Center Odense, Denmark 
KHI has, in a very short period managed to connect all the leaders in the rare ketotic hypoglycemia community across the world. In addition, they have built an impressive network of patients and families who are working together to create a database with which to shape further research. Their work has immediately produced great results. Publications were authored and published, genes were discovered, and an immense movement of awareness for KH has begun.
