After her third year, when Dr. Lloyd was scheduling chief resident, she remained at the program as an attending physician. During her four years as an attending, she gained a passion for teaching family medicine residents and served her active-duty Air Force commitment, spending six months deployed to Ali Al Salem in Kuwait. Dr. Lloyd also published a cover article in the American Family Physician journal on burns and started a grant-funded double-blind research project.

Dr. Lloyd has been with the Southern Colorado Family Medicine residency program since 2013 and became program director in 2015 for both the core and rural programs. She enjoys the challenges of running a residency program and clinic, along with the faculty, leadership, problem-solving and teaching daily.
