Overview
As a general neurologist, I see and treat patients with a variety of neurological problems. During my residency at Duke I became particularly interested in seizure disorders, and completed a clinical neurophysiology fellowship focused on the diagnosis and management of epilepsy. I work with my patients to create a treatment plan that addresses and emphasizes their values. My goal is to make each patient feel heard and provide them with the best possible care.
