Dr. Mcallister Ophelia
Overview
The most important role of a doctor is to identify and appropriately treat conditions while at the same time making complex information understandable for every patient. I believe that It is important to give parents and children the tools, knowledge, and vocabulary to be their best advocate. From complicated heart disease diagnosed in the fetal patient to the care of infants, children, and young adults, I hope to help families maintain heart health.

Duke Cardiology Arringdon
As a pediatric cardiologist, I want Duke to be a place where I would send my own children, my own family. For me, that’s the reason to come, that’s our philosophy, that’s how I work, that’s how we feel. I try to explain everything to the children and parents at the same time and make sure that I let the children ask questions, not just the parents. Getting the children involved helps them understand more and not be afraid so much about what’s happening. With adults, it’s more of a decision-making process that involves the whole family. I’m open and honest about what we can do and can’t do, and what I know and don’t know. I’m not telling them what to do, but advising them and we’re working as a group to decide the best treatment options. It’s fun working with children and fun seeing them be happy and get better and grow up. I see children that I diagnosed before birth, and some of them are in high school now.
