Micah Schub

Overview

As a nephrologist, I see patients across the clinical spectrum of kidney transplantation. I guide patients from the evaluation process through the transplant itself, perform kidney biopsies when necessary, and follow up with patients after the transplant in the clinic. The integrated and longitudinal aspect of patient care is what I enjoy the most. It allows me to form meaningful connections, support patients through challenges, and share in the joys of kidney transplantation. My interests outside clinical care include medical education and organ allocation policy.

His clinical expertise encompasses Cryoglobulinemia.

Dr. Schub is board certified in American Board Of Internal Med, Nephrology and American Board Of Internal Med, Internal Medicine. He is actively involved in clinical research, co-authoring 5 peer reviewed articles.

I am a transplant surgeon specializing in kidney transplants. Kidney transplantation is unique in surgery because you’re providing a cure for a disease. It’s very rewarding to see the patients succeed after surgery; the donors also make my practice very special. We can’t do a transplant without them providing this wonderful gift. Duke has been performing kidney transplants for 50+ years – since the very beginnings of the field. In fact, the process of how we match tissues for transplants was started at Duke. We’ve done thousands of kidney transplants here, so it’s great to be a part of a program with such a rich history. I’m also the chairman of the Department of Surgery and the surgeon-in-chief for the Duke University Health System, where we perform all types of transplants. Dr. Kirk is highly rated in 4 conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Malnutrition, Hepatic Ischemia, Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, Kidney Transplant, and Islet Cell Transplantation. Dr. Kirk is board certified in American Board Of Surgery, General Surgery.
