Durham, NC 

Overview

I am a neonatologist and am privileged to care for sick term and preterm infants who have difficulty after birth and require admission to the Duke Intensive Care Nursery. I am there to care for your baby from their first breath to ensure that the transition goes smoothly and care, if needed, is immediate. Some families face challenging diagnoses with their little ones, but assuring the family that we will be there for them with support and compassion during the process is invaluable. Resilience, compassion, and unconditional love are only a few values I have learned from my patients and their families. The neonatal intensive care unit is a unique place; we are all part of a big family, and I couldn’t be prouder to work alongside the most qualified medical providers in the nation. Outside of work, I love spending time with my family and searching for great restaurants in the Triangle.

Her clinical expertise encompasses Premature Infant and Necrotizing Enterocolitis.

Dr. Tei C. Chan Poon is board certified in American Board Of Pediatrics, General Pediatrics and American Board Of Pediatrics, Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine. She is actively involved in clinical research, co-authoring 3 peer reviewed articles.

"I can distinctly remember the awe and utter amazement I felt watching my first cesarean delivery. I knew that there was a baby inside the mother's abdomen, but it was amazing to see the doctors deliver it. To see it just ""pop out"". Still, to this day, I get that feeling of awe and amazement every time I help a mom deliver her baby. I feel so lucky to be part of such a wonderful moment in a family's life. As a maternal fetal medicine specialist, I take care of sick moms, sick babies, and sick pregnancies. Each day, while I get to help women and their families with big wins and happy moments, I also have the opportunity to help them through sad times and some of the worst moments of their lives. It is these hard and sad moments that make the happy ones even more meaningful. I also spend some of my time helping to teach medical students about Ob/Gyn. I really enjoy teaching, and sharing my love for Ob/Gyn with young learners is one of my favorite parts of my job. My other very important job is being a mom. I have three fantastic young boys that keep me busy and remind me on a daily basis how important family is. I love to swim and make jam. Apricot Jam is my favorite.".
