Wake Forest, NC 

Overview

As a family medicine doctor, I provide care to all ages of patients across all spectrum of illnesses. This includes diabetes, high blood pressure, acute illnesses, and comprehensive wellness exams. I enjoy the diversity seen in family medicine, but most of all I enjoy the continuity and the forming of great relationships. I help patients navigate through the complex health care system while forming bonds that last forever so that patients receive the care they need. I am here to help patients make the right choices for themselves. When this happens, great relationships are formed and high quality, informative care is delivered. Outside of the office, I enjoy an occasional round of golf with my boys, visiting my girl who is in college, and traveling with my wife.

"When I was a boy, I dreamed of becoming a simple country doctor. Although today I am not so much ""in the country"", that kind of doctor is who I am at heart. I enjoy the combination of the breadth of family medicine with the depth of the relationships the field allows me to form with patients of all ages and from all walks of life. I am particularly interested in cardiovascular disease prevention and helping patients manage hypertension (high blood pressure). Men's health is another area of interest, and I try to role model a healthy lifestyle by exercising regularly and eating a healthful diet. I also offer no needle, no scalpel vasectomies at Duke Family Medicine Center. My research focuses on hypertension, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, and obesity prevention. I enjoy traveling and taking time to appreciate the beauty and wonder around us.". Dr. Viera is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Hypertension. His top areas of expertise are Hypertension, Atherosclerosis, Coronary Heart Disease, and Obesity.
