Dr. Theodore N. Pappas

I chose to become a surgical oncologist because of the unique opportunity for complex surgical care and longer-term follow-up. The interpersonal relationships with patients serve to motivate me as a physician. Recognizing how difficult it must be as a patient diagnosed with a potentially life-threatening illness, I strive to minimize the stress on patients and families. I do this by educating them about their diagnosis and potential treatments, enabling them to make key decisions in their care and closely caring for them for the duration of their recovery from surgery. I am humbled by the faith and confidence that patients place in their surgeons, and I strive to always exceed their expectations. Following 20 years of service on active duty in the Army, I am eager to join the team at Duke University Medical Center and provide the best possible care to our patients.
