  • I am a family physician currently practicing at the Sugar House ÈËÆÞÖгöÊÓƵ Center Family Medicine Clinic at the ÈËÆÞÖгöÊÓƵ of Utah. Primary care is my passion with an emphasis to elevate those who may need assistance navigating the health system. My interest and skills in underserved care were first honed at the U ÈËÆÞÖгöÊÓƵ Redwood Clinic where I spent my first few years after residency. There I witnessed the unique health care needs of the refugee population. In 2003, I joined the ÈËÆÞÖгöÊÓƵ of Utah Department of Family & Preventive Medicine, Division of Family Medicine at the Sugarhouse Family ÈËÆÞÖгöÊÓƵ Center. I was able to continue working with diverse communities by strengthening our clinic's New American/refugee health program and expanding to work with gender minority populations. I serve as the co-medical director of the U ÈËÆÞÖгöÊÓƵ Transgender ÈËÆÞÖгöÊÓƵ Program providing primary care and gender affirming hormone therapy for transgender and gender diverse people.

    Dr. Kiraly is a skilled, intelligent, and knowledgeable physician who carefully and patiently listens, expresses the right level of empathy and concern, asks fruitful questions, and clearly explains options, pros and cons. She does all this with a gentle, caring humor that makes a patient feel like a person, not an appointment to get through.

    Dr. Kiraly is the best doctor I've ever had. She is conscientious, kind, caring, and truly listens to her patients (both with her ears and with her stethoscope). It's not often that a PCP's actions can tangibly change your life but she has saved our lives and made a difference. I am so grateful to her and hope she keeps practicing forever!
