Dr. Yubin Kang
Overview
As a physician and scientist, my ultimate goal is to translate research findings from bench to beside to improve patient care. I focus my research and clinical work on treating blood and bone marrow cancers. Most of the patients in my clinic are blood and bone marrow transplant patients and patients with plasma cell diseases such as multiple myeloma, amyloidosis, POEMS syndrome, and Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia. The research interests in my lab are on the development of new approaches to enhance hematopoietic stem cell engraftment and reconstitution following blood and bone marrow transplant.

Duke Blood Cancer Center
An interest in biological sciences and giving back to the community drove me to medical school, but it has been a desire to advance the field of hematologic malignancies, specifically Multiple Myeloma, that brings me to Duke Health. Cancer is a life-altering diagnosis. With a strong, competent team caring for a patient, there can be many success stories. My goal is to empower my patients to understand their diagnosis and how to manage their disease while providing them with many treatment options along the way.

Duke Cardiology Clinic - Clinic 2F/2G
I am a researcher and heart transplant specialist who also serves as medical director for the heart transplant program at Duke. From the time I was a child, I have been fascinated by how the human body works, specifically by how blood travels around the body. I became especially interested in how the heart behaves when it is normal and how it adapts when it is damaged. As a transplant cardiologist, I get to combine these interests with cutting-edge medicine to help people to live longer and feel better, even when hearts fail. I enjoy getting to know patients and their loved ones as they go through their transplant journey at Duke. I am also fortunate to be part of an experienced team that has been together for over a decade taking care of heart transplant patients. Dr. Patel is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Primary Localized Cutaneous Amyloidosis.
