Overview
As a trained vascular neurosurgeon, I specialize in the treatment of vascular diseases of the brain and spine. These typically include aneurysms, vascular malformations, vessel narrowing, carotid disease, and strokes, in addition to general neurosurgical care. Many of these conditions are complex to diagnose and treat and, therefore, I completed additional training specifically in cerebrovascular conditions to help achieve the best possible outcomes. My goal is to listen to your concerns, inform you to the best of my ability about your condition and considerations for treatment options, and ultimately serve as your guide to find the best pathway forward. As a patient at Duke Health, you will have access to a world-class team of specialists, providers, and resources that help me provide comprehensive care for your condition. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and children and partaking in the many activities available throughout the Triangle.

Duke Cancer Center Brain Tumor Clinic
What we specialize in at The Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center is compassionate care – we take care of our patients. It’s complete care. The patients don’t have to go out and find a radiologist. We have the radiation oncologist, the chemotherapy, the surgery, the radiology, we have all kinds of nursing people as well as help getting physical therapy and getting in-the-home assistance. Patients also can expect cutting-edge care because we run such a terrific science program here. I really like working with the patients. No question about it. It’s not that I’m doing some trivial procedure six times a day. When someone comes in with a brain tumor, there’s usually some bonding, and instead of running away from that, I really enjoy it.
