Overview
I am very fortunate to get to work in a profession that I love. I went into medicine initially because of my interest in science and the incredible complexity of the human body. I then found my home in primary care where I can follow patients long-term, develop relationships, and be the true coordinator of all of their health care needs. My favorite part of practicing medicine is applying medical evidence within the context of an individual patient’s goals in order to achieve the best outcomes. I moved to Durham for my internal medicine training at Duke, and my husband and I decided to stay here to work and raise a family together. We now have two beautiful daughters who fill our lives with joy.

Duke Signature Care South Durham
As a doctor who practices concierge medicine at Duke Signature Care, I have a smaller panel of patients compared to when I worked in primary care. This allows me to have more one-on-one time with my patients. I now have the flexibility to answer patient emails and phone calls directly instead of them having to speak with a nurse. My accessibility also allows patients to book acute visits on the same day they need to see me. My patients give me such satisfaction when I see them smile and doing better. I tend to be a picky doctor that leaves no stone unturned. I also look at both the physical and mental well-being of my patients to help provide the best care. I love being a part of Duke and its academic center with specialists at my fingertips. When I’m not being a doctor, I’m a mom of two girls. My husband and I also love to travel, hike, snorkel and play golf. Dr. Phelps is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL).
