Overview
I love being a vascular surgeon because it provides the opportunity to treat disease in all aspects of the body. I specialize in arterial disease, whether that means preventing an abdominal aortic aneurysm from rupturing or performing a bypass to end debilitating leg pain. Vascular surgery is a unique combination of traditional technical challenges and modern technology, which allows for minimally invasive procedures. Most important, vascular surgery allows me to create long-term relationships with my patients. I like to sit down and speak with patients and their families in order to create a family atmosphere where patients feel they can talk to me about anything. At the end of the day, we are all on the same team.

Duke Regional Vascular Access
\I am a vascular surgeon with the training and experience to treat the full scope of vascular disease, however I do have a passion for preventing amputations. I have spent my career building both technical and academic expertise in the field of limb preservation for patients with diabetes and vascular disease (peripheral artery disease/PAD). My academic focus is on addressing health disparities related to amputation and working in underserved communities to achieve health equity through sustainable, community focused programs. Clinically, I have come to Duke to build a comprehensive multidisciplinary Threatened Limb Clinic. At our clinic, we work together with podiatry and wound care to closely care for our patient population and give them the ""\""TLC""\"" they deserve.""""https://www.dukehealth.org/sites/default/files/styles/doctor_profile/public/physician/samantha-d-minc-md-mph.jpg?itok=OxS6Ax1O Aetna | Ambetter | Blue Cross Blue Shield of NC | Cigna | Duke Group Plans | Experience Health | Gateway Health Alliance | Healthgram | Humana | MedCost | Medicare | NC Medicaid | TRICARE | United Healthcare active English no Duke Regional Vascular Access 407 Crutchfield St Durham NC 27704-2726 US https://www.dukehealth.org/find-doctors-physicians/samantha-d-minc-md-mph https://corporate.dukehealth.org/sites/default/files/2025-06/Duke%20Health%20Approved%20Logos_1.png.
