Dr. Clayton A. Alfonso
Overview
I went into medicine with a desire to care for people throughout their lifetime. Obstetrics and gynecology enables me to do that and so much more. Getting to know my patients is a priority to me. My clinical interests include general obstetrics, gynecologic surgery with a focus on minimally invasive techniques, benign gynecologic disorders, family planning, LGBTQ+ health, and contraception. Some of my other interests include education and advocacy. I enjoy being involved with an academic medical center because it allows me to stay up to date on current medical knowledge and practice. I have been to numerous local, state, and national conferences advocating for health care. As an open member of the LGTBQ+ community, I strive to provide the most inclusive care possible for all persons seeking care with me. I am originally from Louisiana and moved to North Carolina for residency in 2013.

Duke Ambulatory Surgery Center
I have chosen to direct my efforts as a physician toward improving the quality of life for women who are dealing with pelvic floor disorders. I focus on listening to a patient's description of her symptoms and their impact on her, her goals for treatment, and – by using evidence-based techniques– I evaluate her condition. Treatment options might vary from patient to patient; the best way to proceed is often an individualized decision. I am pleased to have been a member of the Duke faculty since 1996. Our division is nationally recognized as offering the best possible urogynecologic care with a full range of approaches to suit any patient.
