Overview
I first got interested in medicine as a young child after observing how doctors helped my father feel better after he was admitted to a hospital with a serious medical problem. Having personally experienced how much difference a caring and dedicated physician can make to a patient and family, my goal is to treat every patient as I would l like my family members to be treated. I take care of patients with blood disorders such as abnormal blood counts, anemia, clotting disorders and participate in clinical trials and research relating to these conditions. In my free time, I enjoy traveling with my husband and cooking.

Duke University Hospital
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. Dr. Diehl is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Febrile Neutropenia.
