She received her undergraduate degree from CUNY Honors College at Queens College, and earned her medical degree from New York Medical College.

Dr. Lech completed her residency at Mount Sinai Hospital, where she was Chief Resident. During her time there, she continued her medical school research into looking at barriers into HIV testing in emergency departments both locally and abroad.
