LeAnna Roberts holds several outstanding academic records as she graduated from both high school and community college on the same day before proceeding to earn a Bachelor’s degree at the University of Alabama.
She attended Central High School and Shelton State Community College through dual enrollment and earned her associate degree at the age of 15. She immediately enrolled for a bachelor’s degree in biology at the University of Alabama, United States.

As for her career plans, Roberts said she hopes to make a positive impact on the medical field and focus on health care disparities in rural communities.
My overall goal is just to improve healthcare disparities and inequities that we see, especially with underserved communities. My grandparents are from rural Alabama. So I’ve been able to witness firsthand since I was a younger child just how that can affect one’s health. So being able to impact that is my long-term goal as a physician,” Roberts explained.
