Dr. John D. Bireley
Overview
My practice is primarily focused on diagnosing and treating disorders of the peripheral nervous system, which includes disease that affects the nerve, muscle, and the connection between the two. I have a particular interest in autoimmune neurological disorders such as myasthenia gravis and CIDP. I perform EMG, nerve conduction studies, and ultrasound to aid in diagnosis and treatment. Outside of this, I also care for patients with a broader range of neurological diagnoses including seizure, stroke, and headache.

Duke Cancer Center
I am a neurologist and cancer doctor who treats brain tumors and researches ways to improve quality of life for brain tumor patients. As a college student, I thought I was going to be a scientist, but fell in love with studying the brain and its inner workings. I enjoy being at Duke, because I work with some of the top clinicians and researchers in the field, and a generous and warm-hearted staff that helps patients and their loved ones through treatment. It is hard to pick one thing I enjoy about my job. I enjoy seeing patients and their loved ones, being at the cutting edge of research and teaching the next generation of doctors. I think it is the chance to do so many different things that makes my job special. Outside of work, I enjoy shopping at farmer’s markets, cooking and exercising.
