Overview
I am a transplant nephrologist specializing in the evaluation and care of kidney and pancreas transplant patients. I joined Duke Health in 2023 to lead the living donor kidney transplant program. Our living donor team is actively working to increase access to these life saving transplants by removing barriers to donation and through innovative use of paired donor exchange. Helping people live a longer, healthier life through transplant is my passion. I also value getting to know my patients and their loved ones, and seeing them through life's challenges and successes. I am a native North Carolinian coming back home and am proud to be part of the dedicated transplant team at Duke Health.
