Experienced in Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis

Overview

I have learned through my experience and training that the health care system can be overwhelming and complex. My goal as a provider is to help my patients feel seen, heard, and supported. In the hospital setting, I see patients with urgent or emergent neurologic conditions, including stroke, seizures, headache, confusion, or any other new or worsening neurologic symptoms. My outpatient practice focuses largely on post-hospital stroke care and other vascular neurologic conditions, such as moyamoya disease, cervical artery dissection, or cerebral venous sinus thrombosis. I am privileged to be in a position to help my patients understand and digest the complexity of their medical care and work with them as an ally to navigate their recovery or treatment plan.

I am a neurologist who focuses on multiple sclerosis and related inflammatory conditions of the brain. I attended Duke as an undergraduate student and then again as a neurology resident and fellow. After a career in the Navy, I returned to Duke as part of the faculty in 2002. I am proud to be a part of the Department of Neurology because of its commitment to expanding expertise in the area of multiple sclerosis, not just for our own patients, but for people worldwide. I love the challenge of figuring out the best treatment for each individual I care for, and I am passionate about educating patients about the risks and benefits of the different therapies available so they can partner with me in making decisions about their health. I am committed to providing the best care possible to my patients and giving them hope for the future. Dr. Skeen is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis.
