Overview

It's wonderful, in OB-GYN, the way we get to be part of important moments in patients' lives and to develop long-term relationships with them. From helping young women transition into adulthood to delivering their babies to being there for their more painful and vulnerable moments, it’s a privilege to be a part of those personal times in their lives. Because every woman is different, I have a very individualized approach when I meet with patients. It’s important for me to listen to what their health care needs and wants are. At Duke, we have cutting-edge technology, specialists, and so many resources available. If I have a patient that I need help with, either within the Ob-Gyn department or with another specialty, I have people that I can easily ask across the system.

Her top areas of expertise are Endometrial Polyps and Menopause.

"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.". Dr. Dotters is highly rated in 12 conditions, according to our data. Her top areas of expertise are Chromosome 13q Duplication, Trisomy 13, Trisomy 18, Hysterectomy, and Tubal Ligation.
