Dr. Brent W. Kinder

I am a lung specialist and take care of patients with respiratory problems. My specialty focus is interstitial lung disease and pulmonary fibrosis, conditions that cause inflammation and scarring in the lungs. I enjoy listening to and getting to know my patients so that we can work together to personalize evaluation and treatment. I believe that patients and their families deserve excellent, state-of-the-art care and a team approach when facing the challenges and worries of a lung disease diagnosis. I strive to answer questions and make sure that our plan is clear at every visit. In addition to caring for patients in the clinic, I am involved in clinical research and am passionate about finding new advances for patients with interstitial lung disease.

I feel very privileged to be involved in the care of patients that have undergone or may be considering lung transplantation. These are people whose own lungs have failed them even though they have pursued all the options, efforts, and therapies that are currently available with modern medicine. It is an honor to be part of the journey of someone who is literally fighting to the last breath and then witness their incredible second chance at life due to the immeasurable generosity of an organ donor. Duke is an amazing place to be part of. Their multidisciplinary team values every patient and treats them as an individual. While needing a lung transplant should never be on someone’s wish list, it is my goal to always be able to be there by their side and help them navigate the uncertainties, good or bad, of the future.
