Clinical Research
Clinical research consists of overseeing clinical studies of patients undergoing new treatments and therapies, and publishing articles in peer reviewed medical journals. Providers who actively participate in clinical research are generally at the forefront of the fields and aware of the most up-to-date advances in treatments for their patients.
Duke Cancer Center
I am a medical oncologist who focuses on bone and soft tissue cancers called sarcomas. I love spending time with my patients. They often have a sense of awareness about their condition that’s truly unique and rewarding. I partner with each patient so they know the full set of options available for treatment and can make an informed decision about the approach that is best for them. I’ve wanted to pursue medicine for as long as I can remember. I find cancer fascinating because of its ability to evade the immune system. The body fails to recognize cancer as being foreign. When I am not at work, I love spending time with my family and enjoy long distance running. Dr. Riedel is rated as an Elite provider by MediFind in the treatment of Angiosarcoma. His top areas of expertise are Adult Soft Tissue Sarcoma, Liposarcoma, Desmoid Tumor, and Angiosarcoma.
Duke Cancer Center Cary
I am a medical oncologist/hematologist at Duke Raleigh, with a particular interest in breast cancer. The field of medical oncology has always inspired me because of the strength and determination shown by cancer patients. My practice is to personally know my patients and their families. Together we can formulate a treatment plan that is based on patient values and preferences. I also work to incorporate the highest level of evidence-based medicine into our treatment plans. Ultimately, my goal is to develop long-term relationships with my patients and help them enjoy healthy lives. From a personal perspective, I am originally from Southern Pines, NC. Outside work I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughter. Together we like exploring outdoors, traveling, and spending time with extended family.
