Dr. Jonathan Morena
Overview
I am a neuromuscular specialist and see patients with any neuromuscular condition. Common symptoms of neuromuscular conditions can include weakness, imbalance, numbness, tingling, double vision, and difficulties with speech or swallowing. I perform electromyography (EMG) and neuromuscular ultrasound to assist in the proper diagnosis and guide treatment when appropriate. Every patient deserves the best care possible, and this is what I strive for during each encounter. I care for my patients in the way I would hope my family members would be cared for.

Duke Electromyography Laboratory - Clinic 1L
I care for patients with neuromuscular disorders, which include muscular dystrophy, neuropathy, autoimmune muscle, and nerve conditions, as well as inherited ones. A lot of my work is focused on a holistic approach, so I don’t just focus on the treatment of the disease, but also the way the disease is affecting the rest of the patient’s life and quality of life. I will spend the majority of my visit talking with the patient, then do a full neurological exam, and then discuss potential options and potential diagnoses. If it is a condition that is autoimmune, we can discuss various therapies that can be used and other needs at home related to mobility or basic function. Our patients have a variety of different conditions that can cause problems with breathing, cardiac abnormalities, endocrine dysfunction, and mobility problems. Our clinic here at Duke is unique because we offer multiple consultants working as a team to give the best holistic care to a patient.
