Dr. Matthew D. Barber
Overview
I am an Obstetrician and Gynecologist who specializes in urogynecology and pelvic reconstructive surgery. I am passionate about improving the health and quality of life of women with pelvic floor disorders. These conditions, which include bladder and bowel control problems, dropped bladder and vaginal bulging, affect millions of women. It is extremely rewarding to be able to help my patients get their lives back. At Duke, I feel very fortunate to work with a nationally recognized team of urogynecologists, urologists, physical therapists and researchers that have been providing the full spectrum of medical and surgical care for these conditions for over two decades. It is very gratifying to be able to provide multidisciplinary care that is tailored to each patient’s own problems and goals. I also have the privilege of being the chairman of the Duke Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, a team of over 80 generalists and specialists dedicated to improving the health of women.

"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.".
