Overview

I enjoy partnering with patients on lifestyle modification and managing complex medical issues using both conventional and complementary approaches. I have a special interest in mind-body medicine. I started my medical career with seven years in private practice in Green Bay, Wisconsin, providing office-based, hospital, and nursing home care. In 2002, my family and I set off for the warmer climate of North Carolina in order to live in an area with a more ethnically diverse population and a longer growing season. I joined Durham Medical Center, a part of Duke Primary Care. In 2012, I helped create the Duke Integrative Primary Care Program.

Dr. Blackford is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). Her top areas of expertise are Sitosterolemia, Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH), Congenital Lipoid Adrenal Hyperplasia, and High Cholesterol.
