Background and Interests:

Dr. LeMoine came to Saint Francis in 2009 after completing a post-doctoral fellowship in Oncology at Georgetown University’s Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center in Washington, DC. Prior to this, she was a graduate research assistant at the Human Performance Laboratories at Ball State University (Muncie, IN) and East Carolina University (Greenville, NC). Dr. LeMoine was also an exercise physiologist with the Weight Intervention and Surgical Healthcare (WISH) Center in Dayton, Ohio. She has been a personal trainer and group exercise instructor, working with individuals from almost every walk of life – children, older individuals, new moms (and their babies) and many others. She loves endurance exercise (running, swimming, cycling, etc), has finished 3 marathons, 4 half-marathons, lots of trail races and one half-Ironman…and can’t wait to run her next race…
