Duke Health Referring Physicians

My practice is primarily focused on diagnosing and treating disorders of the peripheral nervous system, which includes disease that affects the nerve, muscle, and the connection between the two. I have a particular interest in autoimmune neurological disorders such as myasthenia gravis and CIDP. I perform EMG, nerve conduction studies, and ultrasound to aid in diagnosis and treatment. Outside of this, I also care for patients with a broader range of neurological diagnoses including seizure, stroke, and headache.

My passion for neurology started as a simple fascination with the brain and behavior. The intricate nature and elegance of the nervous system as well as ongoing discovery within the field helped further my interest. Caring for those with neurological disease requires appreciation of both the physical and psychological manifestations as they affect the patient and their families/loved ones. This holistic approach to patient care is central to my practice.
