Clinical Research

Providers who actively participate in clinical research are generally at the forefront of the fields and aware of the most up-to-date advances in treatments for their patients.
Duke Children's Health Center Rheumatology Clinic
I care for children with childhood arthritis, autoimmune, and autoinflammatory conditions. The relationship I build with my patients and families is one of the most rewarding parts of my career. I believe it is that collaborative relationship that is crucial to managing these often chronic conditions that affect children so differently. I also remain committed to providing opportunities for patients and families to become involved in research and advocacy to help to move the field forward and improve the care we offer to children. With our joint commitment, we will be able to advance our knowledge, optimize available treatments, and eventually find a cure for these rare conditions.

Duke Children's Health Center Rheumatology Clinic
I am a pediatric rheumatologist and take care of children who have rheumatic diseases and autoimmune diseases. Some of the diagnoses we take care of include juvenile arthritis, lupus, localized scleroderma, dermatitis, and inflammatory eye disease. Kids are very inspiring, and in this field you have the chance to affect them for the rest of their lives. I was drawn to pediatrics almost immediately in medical school. My approach is to partner with parents as they handle care for their child, talking through why their kid needs treatment, the benefits and risks, and working with the whole family as they undergo treatment. Duke is one of the largest centers in the southeast for pediatric rheumatology. We have an active fellowship program, so we are always staying current with the latest treatments, which benefits the patient in the end.
