Susannah M. White, PA
Overview
When it comes to patient care, I feel it is vital to stop and listen to the patient and truly engage with them. I strive to show the patient I care about them as a whole person, not just the problem they present with to the office. Often, the issues that are presented do not have a cure, but lending a listening ear can help the patient feel valued, cared for, and comforted. I have been working in the neurology field prior to coming to Duke. I have experience with general neurology as well as sleep and epilepsy. I am excited to help grow the Comprehensive Center for Epilepsy here at Duke with a specific interest in women with epilepsy. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my French bulldog, Oliver, and my two nieces, as well as hiking, camping, baking, and taking weekend trips to the mountains or beach.
