Overview
My particular interest is in disorders of the blood including bleeding, clotting, sickle cell anemia, hemophilia, myelodysplastic syndromes, disorders of high and low white blood cells and platelets, and anemia. I have a background in malignant hematology as well (leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, bone marrow transplant) and the newest treatment options for patients suffering with these ailments. I provide care for inpatients and have a particular interest in TeleMedicine and remote care for rural based patients. I believe that a patient who understands their illness is the best partner in battling that illness. I try to make sure that my patients understand their illness as I believe that the best chance one has to fight is knowledge. It is my goal to make sure that my patients and their families have a clear understanding of what their diagnosis means and how best to treat it. I appreciate that patients are willing to have me walk with them on a journey that can be life changing and, sometimes, terrifying. When I’m not at the hospital, I enjoy spending time with my husband and child along with our two rescue dogs, Sushi and Dim Sum. In addition, my favorite hobbies are reading and baking.

Duke Adult Comprehensive Sickle Cell Center - Clinic 2N
I became interested in medicine after studying tropical forest in college and realizing that I wanted more contact with people than trees. In medical school, I cared for children and adults with sickle cell disease and was inspired by the challenges and complexity of this chronic illness. I chose to train in both pediatric and adult hematology and now see both children and adults with non-malignant blood disorders. I joined Duke Health in July 2016 to direct the Adult Sickle Cell Program and focus on the care of children and adults with disorders of hemoglobin. Dr. Strouse is highly rated in 9 conditions, according to our data.
