Overview

I am a rheumatologist who sees women who are pregnant, or wish to be pregnant, and have a rheumatic disease. I developed a passion very early in my training for helping women with rheumatic disease build the families that they want. I continue to be inspired each day by my patients and to look for better ways to improve the health of both mother and baby. I also see patients in the Duke Lupus Clinic where we address the challenges of living with lupus. The clinicians work as a team, sharing the care of the patients. We often have trainees working with us to teach future doctors who to manage lupus. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two children and running a Girl Scout troop.

Dr. Clowse is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Scleroderma. Her top areas of expertise are Lupus Nephritis, Undifferentiated Connective Tissue Disease (UCTD), Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus (CLE), and Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).

My primary clinical and research focus is systemic sclerosis (Scleroderma), a rare, chronic autoimmune condition. I direct the Duke Scleroderma Center, one of 40 centers in the country focusing on this disease. We are currently conducting clinical trials and have initiated a registry for patients with scleroderma to help identify better treatments. We utilize a multidisciplinary approach along with pulmonologists, cardiologists, gastroenterologists and hematologists to find the best treatment course for an individual patient. Outside of the hospital I enjoy running and spending time with my family, including our wide assortment of animals. Dr. Shah is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Scleroderma. His top areas of expertise are Systemic Sclerosis (SSc), Scleroma, Scleroderma, and Localized Scleroderma.
