Dr. Laura P. Diefendorf
Overview
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.

Duke Internal Medicine And Pediatrics North Durham
I came “north” to Durham in 1998 to attend Duke Medical School. Little did I know at the time that Duke would become home to me. I currently have an active internal medicine practice seeing adult patients in the primary care setting. I also have the opportunity to work with new doctors in training on a daily basis, providing education to them in the primary care setting. I love taking care of patients in the outpatient setting, managing chronic diseases, and getting to know my patients – their health and their lives. I believe that the physician–patient relationship is a unique one and it is a privilege to be a part of patients’ lives. Outside of the hospital, I enjoy spending time with my family and taking advantage of the benefits of living in the Triangle.
