Dr. Maria J. Small
Overview
I am a maternal-fetal medicine specialist within the field of obstetrics and gynecology. My specific interests are in the area of high-risk maternal medical conditions like hypertension, diabetes and preeclampsia. One of the advantages of coming to Duke is the breadth of specialty support available. My favorite part of my job is my patients. I’m originally from Durham and grew up here, so, I feel like I’m giving back to the community that supported me in this role. Being a physician allows me to combine my love of medicine and my compassion for people. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and going to the beach.

Duke Birthing Center
"I can distinctly remember the awe and utter amazement I felt watching my first cesarean delivery. I knew that there was a baby inside the mother's abdomen, but it was amazing to see the doctors deliver it. To see it just ""pop out"". Still, to this day, I get that feeling of awe and amazement every time I help a mom deliver her baby. I feel so lucky to be part of such a wonderful moment in a family's life. As a maternal fetal medicine specialist, I take care of sick moms, sick babies, and sick pregnancies. Each day, while I get to help women and their families with big wins and happy moments, I also have the opportunity to help them through sad times and some of the worst moments of their lives. It is these hard and sad moments that make the happy ones even more meaningful. I also spend some of my time helping to teach medical students about Ob/Gyn. I really enjoy teaching, and sharing my love for Ob/Gyn with young learners is one of my favorite parts of my job. My other very important job is being a mom. I have three fantastic young boys that keep me busy and remind me on a daily basis how important family is. I love to swim and make jam. Apricot Jam is my favorite.".
