Overview
I am an ear, nose, and throat surgeon who specializes in sleep surgery. In addition to providing comprehensive ENT care, I focus on surgical treatments for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. I am privileged to bring my sleep surgery training back to Duke, where I completed my residency. My philosophy is centered on an evidence-based approach focused on achieving patient goals. I use research including diagnostic surgical procedures to optimize surgical selection and work with my patients to tailor treatment plans. As a fellowship-trained sleep surgeon, I provide cutting-edge care for snoring and sleep apnea and am constantly evaluating the latest treatments to ensure that I can provide the best care for my patients. I look forward to our consultation. Outside of work, my family (including three young boys), loves hiking the local trails, venturing out to the Blue Ridge Mountains, and eating at the many fantastic Durham and Chapel Hill restaurants.
