Dr. Kerrie-anne A. Heron

From the age of seven, as I played “doctor” to my dolls, I knew I wanted to spend my life caring for people. As a primary care physician specializing in both internal medicine and pediatrics, I see patients of all ages and am able to care for multiple generations within families. I am also uniquely equipped to follow pediatric patients with chronic childhood illnesses, including autism and rare genetic diseases, and provide continuity of care as they transition into adulthood. In addition to my clinic work, I am involved in community based health care endeavors, such as providing sports physicals and screening mammographies. The most gratifying parts of my work are the close, caring relationships I form with my patients, and the opportunity to promote health in my own community.

I decided to join the medical profession to serve and make a difference in people's lives. My passion to serve patients drove me to pursue an education in internal medicine, geriatrics, and integrative medicine. I have over 20 years of clinical experience. I am committed to providing efficient, comprehensive and individualized care to my patients. My approach is patient-centered, proactive, and holistic. While caring for patients, I explore safe, evidence-based conventional and alternative modalities. I feel honored and grateful for the opportunity to serve my patients. I believe in determining and addressing the root cause of disease and also valuing the importance of creating and promoting good health. Over the years, I have and continue to present at events sponsored by Duke Health in the community. On a personal note, I enjoy spending time with my wife and children. In my free time, I like to read, write, listen to music, and exercise. Dr. Shroff is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Gitelman Syndrome.
