Kaylah Ibidapo is originally from Atlanta, GA. She received her medical degree from Morehouse School of Medicine in 2018 and continued on to complete her community general Pediatrics residency at Morehouse School of Medicine where she trained at the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta while focusing her continuity clinic care in underserved clinics, primarily those focused on African American healthcare, in the metro Atlanta area. While obtaining her undergraduate degree at Georgia Southern University, she became a MHIRT (Minority Health International Research Training) Scholar which is an NIH funded grant for undergraduate students interested in pursuing global health field specialties. As such, she spent three months in Khon Kaen, Thailand where she developed an adolescent sexual health curriculum for teachers, parents, and teenagers in a nearby village with the intention of using prevention and education to decrease rising STD rates amongst adolescents in this village. Her interest in pursuing a career that incorporated global health continued from there. Kaylah loves all things outdoors, creating music playlists on Spotify, hiking, running outdoors, learning about pop culture, astrology, reading Black queer feminism poetry, make up artistry and watching RuPaul’s Drag Race religiously.
