Overview

I am a vascular surgeon with Duke Health and an Assistant Professor of Surgery in the Duke University School of Medicine. I treat patients with the full spectrum of vascular diseases, including peripheral artery disease, cerebrovascular disease, aneurysmal disease, hemodialysis access, and venous disease. All of these conditions are potentially life-altering, and each can be managed with a combination of medical therapy, open surgery, and endovascular procedures. I am dedicated to understanding my patients and their priorities so that we can engage in shared decision-making regarding the best treatment option for them.

As a surgeon that specializes in the vascular system, which is the body's network of blood vessels, I appreciate that there are many different ways to significantly help people. I truly believe making a connection with a person is one of the most important aspects in patient care. I don’t tell my patients what decision to make about their health. It's my job to understand the priorities in their life and then give them information and guidance to make their own decision. In doing so, a stroke can be prevented by repairing arteries to the brain. Fixing an aneurysm, which is caused by a weakness in the wall of an artery, can save someone from hemorrhaging to death, and treating the arteries to the legs can prevent an amputation or help reduce some causes of severe leg pain. Dr. Shortell is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Nutcracker Syndrome (NCS). Her top areas of expertise are Varicose Veins, Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA), Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm, Carotid Artery Surgery, and Thrombectomy.
