    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.

    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 am convinced that caring for patients with malignant hematologic diseases requires not only up-to-date medical knowledge, but also an understanding of the individual patient's needs and circumstances. I encourage patients to take an active role in their treatment and recovery and I work with them to develop an individualized treatment plan that includes the most advanced therapies available today. My practice focuses primarily on disorders of the lymphatic system (Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia). As an integral part of my clinical activities, I am dedicated to teaching young physicians at all levels of training and educating the next generation of hematologists.

    I study disorders of the bone marrow and bone marrow failure syndromes. I also see some leukemias and lymphomas and other blood malignancies. Duke offers a very personalized, individualized level of care to each patient. Nobody is the same, so we take the whole patient, we listen to them, and we offer our best recommendations for treatment options. We offer some of the latest treatment options that are available, usually in the setting of a clinical trial. If not, we offer the latest advancement in the field. When I was going through medical school, molecular biology was the new field. Everything was being described as a new cancer-causing gene. And to me that was so appealing – we’re going to figure out what causes cancer and new ways to treat it. That’s what really brought me into the hematology oncology world – things were being discovered that were new and exciting and hopefully would lead to new treatment options. Duke offers an extremely high standard of care. Though we’re not always successful and the disease sometimes wins, our goal is to give the patients the best possible care. Dr. De Castro Iii is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL).

    Since studying basic immunology prior to beginning my clinical training, I have been deeply interested in applying immunological perspective for the treatment of cancers including hematologic malignancies. Interestingly emerging immunotherapies showed very promising results in recent years. In my clinic, I treat patients with multiple myeloma which is one type of cancer arising from plasma cells. My research will focus on developing early phase clinical protocols utilizing novel cellular therapy approach and also improving the outcomes of blood and marrow transplantation. My ultimate goal is to provide better treatment options than the current standard approach to patients.

    What makes Duke Health unique in bone marrow transplants is its holistic approach. We take care of the disease -- which is important, because these are very serious, potentially fatal diseases. But at the same time, we pay attention to patients’ emotional and psychological well-being in addition to their physical well-being. And not only for patients but also the whole family, because the caregivers and other parts of the family need attention as well. I wanted to go into medicine, because it was a great way to interact and take care of patients. In my mind, cancer is one of two diseases within internal medicine where you can actually cure people. The best part of bone marrow transplant is that the time between the laboratory and the patient is short. Patients who need a transplant tend to be relatively sick and in need of new therapies. That’s been very intellectually challenging and fun. Dr. Chao is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL).

    The Division of Cellular Therapy does bone marrow transplants and stem cell transplants for patients with different types of blood cancers. Specifically, I see patients with multiple myeloma or other plasma cell issues like amyloidosis. Many of the cases in my clinic are difficult. So I spend a lot of time talking with my patients, explaining the disease when they come as new patients and talking about the complexity of the disease, because it’s important that they understand what to ask their physicians here at Duke and at home. There’s no standard treatment for myeloma. We have different options – continuation of therapy, immediate transplant or transplant later. I like to explain to patients why I favor a certain treatment approach and why I think it would be the best approach for them.

    What is the definition of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL)?

    Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and is an aggressive blood cancer that originates in the lymphatic system and affects B-lymphocytes, which is a type of white blood cell that helps to fight infection. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and can occur in one area of the body or throughout the body, and mainly occurs in individuals over the age of 60.  Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is categorized by the following subtypes: T-cell/histiocyte-rich B-cell lymphoma – This subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma has some scattered large and atypical B cells mixed with many normal T cells and histocytes (immune system cells). Primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the central nervous system – This subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma originates in either the brain or eye and can be a secondary development. Primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type – This subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is composed of large transformed B cells that create red or bluish-red tumors and can also involve the arms, trunk, buttocks, legs, or other areas. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the elderly – This subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma mainly occurs in patients over the age of 50 who test positive for the Epstein-Barr virus. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (NOS) – This subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is for any that does not fall into one of the above classifications and represents 25-30% of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in western countries. In addition to subtypes, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is classified into the following stages: Stage I – The diffuse large B-cell lymphoma appears in one lymph node area or a cluster of nearby lymph nodes. Stage II – The diffuse large B-cell lymphoma appears in two lymph node area or has spread (metastasized) to one organ and nearby lymph nodes but is limited to an area of the body above or below the diaphragm.  Stage III – The diffuse large B-cell lymphoma appears in lymph nodes both above and below the diaphragm and may also appear in the spleen. Stage IV – This advanced stage diffuse large B-cell lymphoma appears in several areas of one or more organs and tissues and may also affect the liver, lungs, or bones. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is further classified by A or B to denote whether the patient is experiencing any significant symptoms (A), or if the patient has significant symptoms, such as unexplained weight loss, persistent fever, or severe night sweats (B).

    When should I see a Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) doctor near Chapel Hill, NC?

    There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

    • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
    • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
    • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
    • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
    • You want a second opinion.  

    What should I consider when choosing a Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) doctor near Chapel Hill, NC?

    It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

    How does MediFind rank Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) doctors near Chapel Hill, NC?

    MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

    What types of insurance are accepted by Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) doctors near Chapel Hill, NC?

    Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

    How can I book an appointment online with a Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) doctor near Chapel Hill, NC?

    MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) doctor?

    Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

    How can I prepare for my appointment with a Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) doctor near Chapel Hill, NC?

    Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

    • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
    • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
    • Family history of disease 
    • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
    • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
    • List of questions and concerns 
    • Your insurance card 

    You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

    What questions should I ask my Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) doctor?

    Here are some sample questions: 

    • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
    • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
    • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
    • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
    • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

    How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) doctor may know about?

    MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you.
