Overview
I became a neurologist as I found the brain to be the most complex and fascinating organ in the body. During my training, I developed interest in epilepsy and sleep disorders and completed additional training in both of these fields. I believe in providing individualized care to all my patients after listening to each unique situation and coming up with a treatment plan that works best for them.

Duke Neurological Disorders Clinic - Clinic 1L
I am currently the chief of the division of Epilepsy, Sleep, and Clinical Neurophysiology. I see epilepsy patients and patients with sleep disorders. The epilepsy patients that I see often have a hard time controlling their seizures or have other epilepsy-related problems. At Duke, we have many options, including clinical trials, advanced medications, and surgical options, that we can offer patients to get them to a better quality of life with fewer or no seizures. In sleep disorders, I see many patients with sleep apnea and have a passion for treating individuals with narcolepsy. My philosophy is that I want patients to be aware of all the different treatment options that they have available this them. Together, we come up with what I, the patient, and the family think is the best approach for the individual. This way, we can individualize the treatment for each person. It is very gratifying for me to see patients doing so much better with the appropriate medications and pursuing the dreams they have and doing the things they really want to do.
