About Me

I am a pulmonary and critical care physician with subspecialty training in interventional pulmonology. I use advanced bronchoscopic techniques for diagnostic and therapeutic modalities across a wide spectrum of disease processes. My goal is to serve as a guide to help patients understand their disease and offer a collaborative approach to aid in diagnosis and treatment using advanced technology when applicable. I believe that each patient deserves an opportunity to make an informed decision regarding their health. I enjoy spending my free time with my family and going on early morning runs on the American Tobacco Trail with my dog.

Insurance

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.
