While my focus is my clinical practice, I keep my orthopaedic knowledge current by regularly participating as faculty in national and international orthopaedic foot and ankle conferences, conferences that frequently prompt me to bring advances to help the patients in my practice. I also continue to study many of the problems through dedicated foot and ankle research and share my clinical, surgical and research experience with national and international colleagues, the surgeons who attend the meetings, and the residents and fellows that I train each year.

I am an orthopaedic surgeon with specialized training in foot and ankle surgery. Prior to becoming a physician, I worked as a physical therapist. My focus has always been on assisting patients in returning to the activities they enjoy. This entails understanding each patient's current limitations and future goals to develop a treatment plan tailored to their needs. I believe in optimizing non-surgical options using various modalities while ensuring patients comprehend their surgical options for when or if the time is appropriate to pursue that route. In my practice, I address a wide range of foot and ankle issues, including bunions, achilles injuries, fractures, and complex foot reconstruction, with a particular emphasis on acute foot and ankle trauma and revision surgery. One aspect I appreciate about Duke Health is the ability to collaborate with other surgeons, therapists, and physicians to devise a comprehensive plan that suits each patient. During my leisure time, you'll often find me running, biking, or chasing after my two energetic boys. Dr. O'connor is highly rated in 1 condition, according to our data. Her clinical expertise encompasses Achilles Tendon Rupture, Tendinitis, Bursitis, Tenosynovitis, and Hip Replacement.
