Overview

I am a stroke-trained neurologist and neurohospitalist. I mainly manage acute neurological conditions in the hospital setting, and help direct Duke Regional Hospital's stellar acute stroke program, where we are recognized by the Joint Commission as a Primary Stroke Center. I am very interested in how we, as health care providers, deliver neurologic care in the hospital, and how we can improve that care and resulting health outcomes. I also see patients in clinic with cerebrovascular diseases, stroke, and aneurysms and manage these diseases long-term. When I am away from the hospital I enjoy spending time with my wife and our young daughter, and participate in auto racing and high performance driving events.

Dr. Ehrlich is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Stroke. His top areas of expertise are Stroke, Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), Cavernous Sinus Thrombosis, Thrombectomy, and Transmyocardial Revascularization.

His clinical research consists of co-authoring 10 peer reviewed articles. MediFind looks at clinical research from the past 15 years. In particular, he has co-authored 7 articles in the study of Stroke.

I am the division chief for Stroke and Vascular Neurology in the Department of Neurology at Duke Health. I see stroke patient in the emergency department, inpatient service as well as in the outpatient clinic. I also treated post-stroke limb spasticity, a disabling complication after stroke. In addition to the patient care, I also run a brain modulation and stroke recovery lab at the Duke University campus to study stroke patients in my lab to develop new stroke recovery therapy. On my days off, my boys and I are big on fishing. I enjoy drinking and collecting tea. As a stroke doctor, I do not drink coffee at all (there is a reason for it). If you come to see, I will tell you. Dr. Feng is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Stroke. His top areas of expertise are Stroke, Spasticity, Hemiplegia, Thrombectomy, and Stent Placement.
