Dr. Umaru Barrie
Overview
I decided to pursue a career in family medicine due to its emphasis on caring for all patients regardless of their age or illness and getting to know patients well. Family medicine also emphasizes preventative care at the population level, which I am passionate about. The health care landscape in the United States can be very challenging to navigate, and I enjoy helping my patients get connected to various resources and specialists so they can live a healthy and happy life. My approach to patient care is providing my patients with the most up-to-date information and allowing them to make the ultimate choice. I also encourage my patients to play an active role in their care, and I try to enable that in whatever way I can. I am originally from Sierra Leone and moved to the United States after high school.

Duke Primary Care Family Medicine At Cary
I specialize in primary care and can help manage all of your acute and chronic medical conditions. I manage chronic conditions, including high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, depression, and anxiety. I also manage acute conditions such as urinary tract infections, sinus infections, or minor injuries, like strains and sprains. I will also work with you to make sure all of your preventative health care is up to date with screening exams like mammograms or colonoscopies as well as providing all recommended vaccinations. I also perform minor office procedures like skin biopsies or joint injections. I chose primary care because I value building relationships with my patients and working together with them to keep them healthy. In my free time, I enjoy working on cars, cooking, and I am also a big sports fan, especially in college football.
