Overview
As a Pediatric Infectious Diseases doctor, I am a pediatrician with additional training in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of infections in children.

Clinical Research
Clinical research consists of overseeing clinical studies of patients undergoing new treatments and therapies, and publishing articles in peer reviewed medical journals. Providers who actively participate in clinical research are generally at the forefront of the fields and aware of the most up-to-date advances in treatments for their patients.
Duke Children's Health Center Infectious Diseases Clinic
I’m a pediatric infectious diseases specialist. The patients that I see are primarily very immune compromised children, so premature infants with severe infection, children with HIV, and children who had a stem cell transplant or chemotherapy and are at high risk for infection. My clinical care focuses on providing ideal therapy and ideal dosing to help prevent severe neurologic injury after infections in premature infants. With premature infants, they can’t tell you their symptoms and there’s no one perfect answer with dosage, so the medicine is really as much art as it is facts. And that’s really my favorite part of my job – figuring out the right dose for that patient and using that knowledge to help the next patient who comes into the unit. Outside of work, I participate in Olympic weightlifting, CrossFit, and baseball with my wife and four children. Dr. Benjamin is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Infantile Neutropenia. His top areas of expertise are Neonatal Herpes, Neonatal Sepsis, Bacterial Meningitis, and Infantile Neutropenia.
Duke Children's Hospital & Health Center
I specialize in pediatric transplant infectious diseases and see patients who have undergone transplantation or who are otherwise immunocompromised. I perform pre-transplant evaluations and see patients in the hospital for the diagnosis and treatment of infections that occur as an effect of immunosuppression. Transplantation is a life-saving treatment for many children, and I support children along their paths to healing.

Duke Children's Health Center Infectious Diseases Clinic
I entered medicine to improve the welfare of patients by better elucidating the scientific basis of disease. Caring for patients at the bedside and witnessing first-hand their unmet medical needs directly influences the type of work I do in the laboratory. My understanding of the mechanisms of disease pathogenesis influences my care of patients. I strive to help my patients and families understand why, and not just what, medical decisions are being made and help them to be engaged with their care.
