Overview
I am interested in both outpatient and inpatient care of patients with a wide variety of neurological disorders including a focus on sports neurology and sports concussion, general neurology, and autoimmune disorders such as multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica (NMO), sarcoidosis, vasculitis and chronic inflammatory demyelinating peripheral neuropathy. At Duke, we have talented neurology residents and fellows as well as advanced practice providers who help to provide excellent care.

Duke Neurology Morreene Road
My passion for treating movement disorders grew after seeing dramatic improvements in my patients' quality of life due to both medical and surgical treatments. My specialty involves a combination of procedures (botulinum toxin injections, deep brain stimulator placement, and programming) and medication adjustments. As I deal with chronic disease, I enjoy getting to know my patients and families long-term. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors and traveling to new places whenever I get the chance. Dr. Mitchell is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Atypical. His top areas of expertise are Movement Disorders, Parkinson's Disease, Essential Tremor, Deep Brain Stimulation, and Vagotomy.
Duke Neurology Morreene Road
I fell in love with neurology on day one of my clerkship year in medical school. To me, the opportunity to help patients and families through complex illnesses is simultaneously challenging and incredibly rewarding. I ultimately chose to sub-specialize in movement disorders because I enjoy being able to form long-term relationships with patients and families, and I'm optimistic that a disease-modifying therapy for Parkinson disease is within reach. I'm also a core faculty member of Duke's Trent Center for Bioethics, Humanities, and the History of Medicine, where I develop programs to help students and trainees understand the patient's perspective, improving clinician resilience and mitigating burnout. Outside of work, I am an avid runner and cyclist, looking forward to exploring trails around the Triangle. Dr. Mantri is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Atypical.
