I treat adult patients who have hematologic malignancies with a focus on lymphomas. I enjoy seeing a variety of different people from different walks of life. Most of the patients I see have a lymphoma diagnosis. Some examples of lymphomas we see are diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, as well as T-cell lymphoma. The first thing when I meet a patient is to get to know them and their family the best that I can. When I see patients, my goal is that they receive the best care that is available to them anywhere.

I see patients with blood related cancers, primarily lymphoma. I provide them with comprehensive care from the time they come in for diagnosis until they are cured. Duke is special because I can bring the power of a large medical center with expertise across disciplines together for the care of each patient. One of the nicest parts of my job is the Christmas cards I receive from patients that I’ve treated. For many patients who are doing well, we discharge them from the clinic after five years. The Christmas cards give me the opportunity to see that they are getting on with their lives and to hear about how their families are doing. Outside of work, my wife and I spend a lot of our free time with our two daughters and their children. We like the beach, biking and hiking as a family.
