I am a researcher and heart transplant specialist who also serves as medical director for the heart transplant program at Duke. From the time I was a child, I have been fascinated by how the human body works, specifically by how blood travels around the body. I became especially interested in how the heart behaves when it is normal and how it adapts when it is damaged. As a transplant cardiologist, I get to combine these interests with cutting-edge medicine to help people to live longer and feel better, even when hearts fail. I enjoy getting to know patients and their loved ones as they go through their transplant journey at Duke. I am also fortunate to be part of an experienced team that has been together for over a decade taking care of heart transplant patients.

I became a family physician because I believe the doctor-patient relationship is central to medicine. As primary care providers, we are often the person the patient knows and trusts most.

You will find a communicator who can explain things in language you will understand. My clinical interests include preventative health, immunizations, routine gynecological care, asthma, migraine, and hypertension (high blood pressure) management.
