Overview

As a pediatric otolaryngologist and head and neck surgeon, I provide kids and their families a unique perspective and understanding of the natural clinical history of medical problems that may arise. I am passionate and dedicated to helping kids with both routine and complex head and neck problems, including performing cochlear implant surgery, and value the natural collaborative nature of taking care of children and their families. Being involved with kids and their families is one of the most gratifying and satisfying privileges that I have had the fortune of experiencing. I hope to continue to build these relationships and watch the kids that I help take care of grow up.

I am an ear, nose, and throat surgeon who specializes in sleep surgery. In addition to providing comprehensive ENT care, I focus on surgical treatments for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. I am privileged to bring my sleep surgery training back to Duke, where I completed my residency. My philosophy is centered on an evidence-based approach focused on achieving patient goals. I use research including diagnostic surgical procedures to optimize surgical selection and work with my patients to tailor treatment plans. As a fellowship-trained sleep surgeon, I provide cutting-edge care for snoring and sleep apnea and am constantly evaluating the latest treatments to ensure that I can provide the best care for my patients. I look forward to our consultation. Outside of work, my family (including three young boys), loves hiking the local trails, venturing out to the Blue Ridge Mountains, and eating at the many fantastic Durham and Chapel Hill restaurants.
