Overview
I am an oncologist specializing in cancers of the lung and gastrointestinal tract, but I also treat patients with all types of cancers and blood disorders. I prescribe targeted therapies such as oral medications, chemotherapies, and immunotherapies for cancers, as well as intravenous and oral treatments for non-cancerous blood disorders. Most importantly, I listen to my patients to understand their goals and desires for their treatment. Together, we discuss how current therapies can help them achieve their unique goals and live their best lives.

Duke Adult Comprehensive Sickle Cell Center - Clinic 2N
I became interested in medicine after studying tropical forest in college and realizing that I wanted more contact with people than trees. In medical school, I cared for children and adults with sickle cell disease and was inspired by the challenges and complexity of this chronic illness. I chose to train in both pediatric and adult hematology and now see both children and adults with non-malignant blood disorders. I joined Duke Health in July 2016 to direct the Adult Sickle Cell Program and focus on the care of children and adults with disorders of hemoglobin.
