I am an internal medicine doctor with a keen interest in epidemiology and public health. I chose primary care because I enjoy building long-term relationships with patients and getting to know who they are as a whole person. Primary care also allows me the opportunity to engage in preventive medicine guided by population-level data. My approach to patient care is to form a partnership so that patients are actively engaged in decisions about their health. I strive to provide patient-centered, evidence-based care. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading mystery novels, and quilting. Dr. Salter is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease.

I am a nephrologist at Duke University with over 20 years of experience as a clinician, clinical researcher, and mentor. In my outpatient practice, I take care of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). In my hospital work, I evaluate and care for patients with acute kidney injury and with electrolyte disorders. In clinical research, I am experienced in serving on steering committees for multicenter clinical trials in CKD, including work with National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded trials -- the African American Study of Kidney Disease and Hypertension (AASK), the AASK Cohort Study, the Dialysis Access Consortium, and the Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) treatment trial. I recently joined the steering committee for the NIDDK consortium, pilot studies of candidate therapies for CKD. I am active in multiple industry-sponsored clinical trials. I am a member of the executive committee for the Collaborative Study Group, a consortium that has implemented several successful clinical trials in nephrology.

I take care of people with complicated hypertension (high blood pressure), chronic kidney diseases, and dialysis treatments.

The kidney center here at Duke is nationally well-known, and we see patients from all over, including international patients. I always want my patients to know I am available for them, either through MyChart or if they call the office and ask a question; they'll usually get an answer within 24 hours.
