Dr. Herbert J. Stern

As a fellowship trained adult congenital heart disease specialist and Director of the Adult Congenital Heart Center at Duke, I take care of a wide spectrum of heart problems, spanning from simple shunt lesions like patent foramen ovale, atrial septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus, to more complicated disorders, like tetralogy of Fallot, Ebstein anomaly, transposition of the great arteries and single ventricles. I collaborate with my colleagues in adult and pediatric medicine to provide comprehensive health services including complex cardiac interventions like catheter-based pulmonary valve implantation, closure of aortopulmonary collaterals and coarctation stenting. I am also skilled at the non-invasive and invasive assessment of patients with pulmonary hypertension. Congenital heart disease is my passion and I strive to educate my patients, their doctors and our fabulous trainees in order to improve everyone's awareness of these challenging conditions. My spare time is spent mostly at home with my wife and 2 teenage boys. I enjoy participating in and watching all types of major sports and also enjoy traveling.

I am a cardiologist and researcher who has been at Duke for 25 years. My practice focuses mostly on children who have heart disease. My research involves studying and testing different types of drugs that are used to treat heart problems in children. I chose to be a doctor, because I love to see children grow and develop into healthy adults. Focusing on the heart has allowed me to make a big impact, because I get to treat children for problems while they are young that will improve their quality of life far into their future. Cardiology is also exciting because of the cutting-edge technologies use that we use to treat patients. Duke has an outstanding program for children with heart disease. We take a team approach where we involve the family, the child, nurses, doctors, social workers and others to ensure the best outcome for the child and their family.

I am a pediatric cardiologist who specializes in pediatric cardiac imaging, fetal/prenatal cardiology, care for cardiac patients admitted to the hospital, and outpatient cardiology. As a pediatric cardiologist, I take care of children with congenital or acquired heart disease, from birth through adolescence. I am also a fetal cardiologist who guides an expectant family with a baby who has congenital heart disease through pregnancy and delivery. Because I am both a fetal and pediatric cardiologist, I have the privilege of caring for our heart warriors and families from the very beginning in mid-pregnancy all the way to adulthood. Being able to share a special bond with patients and families over years, be a part of their unique journey, and watch each extraordinary heart warrior grow and thrive is the reason why I chose to become a physician.
