I specialize in caring for pregnancies involving maternal or fetal conditions. While I enjoy caring for patients with a broad range of concerns, much of my work centers on caring for patients who are planning pregnancy or who are pregnant while living with heart conditions or blood disorders. I enjoy building relationships with my patients during pregnancy and helping ensure safe and healthy births. Every day, I am reminded how lucky I am to work among so many talented colleagues at Duke Health. One of the best parts of my job is seeing how teamwork and planning can make our patients' birth experiences positive and memorable, even when a pregnancy is considered "high risk".
I perform research in heart and bleeding complications occurring to pregnant people in order to identify how to take even better care of our patients who have complex care needs.

Duke Health contracts with most major health insurance carriers and transplant networks, including the ones listed below. Before scheduling your appointment, we strongly recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the Duke Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any co-payments, co–insurances, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with Duke, your out of pocket liability may be higher. We will contact you regarding your coverage and patient liability. If you are uninsured, learn more about our financial assistance policy.
