She serves as Medical Director of the Neurogenetic and Metabolic Disease Program, as well as Director of the Leukodystrophy Care Network Certified Center at Children’s.
Dr. Keller’s focus in child neurology has been on the care of children with rare metabolic and genetic diseases, specifically leukodystrophies. In 2013, she created the Neurogenetic and Metabolic Disease Clinic to evaluate children with developmental delay and treat children with known genetic and metabolic diseases with neurologic symptoms. In 2016, she created the Leukodystrophy Care Center, a multidisciplinary clinic that includes neurology, physiatry, physical therapy, social work and genetic counseling. This clinic became a Leukodystrophy Care Network Certified Center in 2016.
Dr. Keller is also involved in teaching medical students, residents and advanced practice practitioners about pediatric neurology, in particular neurogenetic diseases. She has given multiple lectures at Emory University, as well as patient advocacy and provider meetings on a regional and national level.
