I am a board-certified neurosurgeon serving patients at Duke Raleigh Hospital, where I began practicing following the completion of my service in the U.S. Army. During my military career, I was privileged to care for service members and their families in both deployed settings and major military hospitals, while also working at leading academic institutions. I bring this diverse experience to Duke, combining a mission-driven mindset with a commitment to excellence in neurosurgical care. My practice includes the full range of cranial and spinal procedures (minimally invasive, endoscopic, robotic, and open), with particular focus on meningiomas, degenerative spine conditions, trigeminal neuralgia, and metastatic disease involving the brain and spine. I believe in tailoring treatment plans to each patient's unique circumstances, integrating advanced surgical techniques with compassionate, individualized care. My goal is always to achieve the best possible outcomes while preserving function and enhancing quality of life. I am honored to serve the Wake County community in this next chapter of my career. In my free time, I enjoy outdoor activities with my wonderful wife and three children. Dr. Sindelar is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Ear Barotrauma.

I am a transplant surgeon specializing in kidney transplants. Kidney transplantation is unique in surgery because you’re providing a cure for a disease. It’s very rewarding to see the patients succeed after surgery; the donors also make my practice very special. We can’t do a transplant without them providing this wonderful gift. Duke has been performing kidney transplants for 50+ years – since the very beginnings of the field. In fact, the process of how we match tissues for transplants was started at Duke. We’ve done thousands of kidney transplants here, so it’s great to be a part of a program with such a rich history. I’m also the chairman of the Department of Surgery and the surgeon-in-chief for the Duke University Health System, where we perform all types of transplants. Dr. Kirk is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Ear Barotrauma. His top areas of expertise are Malnutrition, Hepatic Ischemia, Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, Kidney Transplant, and Islet Cell Transplantation.
