Dr. Cecily K. Peterson
Overview
I am originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I joined the US Army at the urging of a fellow classmate in medical school. Through the Army's Health Professions Scholarship Program, I completed medical school in New England. I did my residency at a large Army base located in the Puget Sound area of the State of Washington, Fort Lewis. I served 13 years in the Army and resigned my commission as a LTC in pursuit of working part time to spend more time with my family. I worked as a hospitalist at Duke for six years before returning to my true passion in 2016, primary care. I really enjoy making long lasting relationships with patients. I strive to give patients my best advice and through shared decision-making help them navigate their health care journey while keeping their life journey at the forefront of our minds.

Duke Outpatient Clinic
After 20 years of clinical and research experience using low carbohydrate, ketogenic diets, I am continually amazed at how health can be improved by just changing the food that someone eats. I use an approach that is simple and effective, and evidence-based. Medical conditions, like type 2 diabetes, obesity, hypertension, GERD, fatty liver, and PCOS, can all be improved or even reversed through food. I am specialized in internal Medicine and obesity medicine, and I am the author of the books End Your Carb Confusion, The New Atkins for a New You, Keto Clarity, and Cholesterol Clarity.
