Overview

I have worked at Duke Health since graduating from physician assistant school in 2004. Since joining Duke Health, I have worked for nine years in headache management and six and a half years in pain management, respectively. In July 2020, I decided to return to my passion for headache management at the Duke Neurological Disorders Clinic at Morreene Road. I love what I do and am passionate about improving the quality of life for patients who live with chronic pain. In my free time, I enjoy running, reading, traveling, and trying out new restaurants!.

Dr. Underwood is highly rated in 5 conditions, according to our data. Her top areas of expertise are Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), Migraine, Headache, and New Daily Persistent Headache (NDPH).
