3 Clinical Trials
Duke Neurology Morreene Road
I see patients with a broad range of movement disorders, including Parkinson's disease, tremors, ataxia, dystonia, tics, and Huntington's disease. I employ deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy for selected patients with Parkinson's disease, tremor, or dystonia, and use botulinum toxin injections for certain patients with dystonia, tremors, or tics. I work with an interdisciplinary team of physicians, therapists, and other health care providers, with the overall goal of helping to improve the lives of patients with complex neurological diseases.

Duke Neurology Morreene Road
As a native of North Carolina, I am passionate about providing high-quality care in the state. I believe that the patient is the center of all we do here at Duke Health. In particular, I provide neurological care for people who have movement disorders. These include conditions like tremor, Parkinson's disease, various forms of Parkinsonism, Huntington's disease, dystonia, and many others. Treatments can include a wide variety of medications, injections of botulinum toxin, and deep brain stimulation. My goal is to focus on the care of the whole person and their care partners. I strive to help alleviate all types of symptoms that can occur with movement disorders and to optimize your quality of life. I love getting to know my patients over many years together and traveling their health journey alongside them and their families. When I am away from the office, I enjoy spending time with family, exploring beautiful state of North Carolina, and supporting Duke athletics.
