Durham, NC 

Overview

I realized at a very young age that I wanted to become a nurse. After I graduated from high school, I became a licensed practical nurse (LPN). In the years that followed, I continued both my career and education in nursing and became a nurse practitioner. I work at Duke Cancer Center with Dr. W. Robert Lee in Radiation Oncology. The majority of our patient population consists of men with prostate cancer. I believe that I am a hard-worker and have a caring personality with the ability to treat others with honesty, respect, and kindness. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our two children and their spouses, and our four grandchildren. We enjoy participating in outdoor activities and attending our grandchildren's sporting events.

Her top areas of expertise are Boils, Folliculitis, Carbuncle, and Prostate Cancer.

I am passionate about caring for patients with primary brain and spinal cord tumors. I value establishing relationships with patients and their families and making sure they are getting the same treatment, including symptom management, that I would want my family to receive. Open and honest communication with patients is important to me. I enjoy educating patients and advocating for them to ensure that their needs are met in a timely fashion. I am interested in long-term survivorship education of my patients and I also have a passion for teaching and mentoring future health care professionals. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, running, Duke basketball, and spending time with my family. Ms. Brown is highly rated in 1 condition, according to our data. Her top areas of expertise are Pediatric Low-Grade Glioma (pLGG) and Brain Tumor.
