I treat all gynecologic cancers including endometrial (uterine), ovarian, cervical, vaginal, and vulvar cancers. I also take care of women who do not have cancer but may need pelvic surgery that is anticipated to be complicated. I am also interested in cancer survivorship and issues that may arise after cancer treatment is completed. My specific surgical areas of expertise include advanced laparoscopic and robotic surgery, sentinel lymph node procedures, laser therapy, and complex pelvic surgery. When not at work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and exploring the world with my two-year-old daughter. Dr. Davidson is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Vaginal Cancer.

Surgery and management of patients with cancer is very complex and challenging. I enjoy working at Duke because of the breadth and quality of people we have here. I really feel like I’m working with the best when I’m working with my colleagues. I went into obstetrics and gynecology, because I enjoyed working with women patients. Then as a resident, I found that oncology patients were among the most gratifying to take care of because they appreciate so much everything you try to do for them. In high school and college, I was very interested in science and mathematics, and the human body and physiology. In college, meeting different types of people, I realized that I wanted a profession that gave me the opportunity to interact with all different kinds of people. My wife and I moved here 25 years ago and have never regretted it. It’s a great area to live. Dr. Berchuck is rated as an Elite provider by MediFind in the treatment of Vaginal Cancer.
