Overview
I am a medical oncologist who specializes in the care of patients with breast cancer. I chose this field because it allows me to guide, support, and comfort my patients through some of the most meaningful and challenging moments of their lives - from the uncertainty of a new cancer diagnosis to the excitement of a remission to the complexity of end-of-life decisions. I am originally from North Carolina, and after completing my medical training at Johns Hopkins, I am honored to return home to serve my community as a breast medical oncologist. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, hiking with my rescue dog, and reading/writing creative nonfiction.

Duke Blood Cancer Center
I entered medical school for the sole purpose of learning more about human diseases, so that I could focus my laboratory efforts on improving the human condition. However, I was surprised to find myself drawn to clinical care. I care for people afflicted by acute leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, and myeloproliferative neoplasms. In this role, I have had the privilege of treating people facing life-threatening illnesses. I strive to gain the trust of each of my patients, so that I can help them make difficult treatment decisions. I engage in clinical research, evaluating novel agents that directly target the cancer cell to improve the degree of success in treating this illness. My patients benefit from my understanding of the newest available treatments, and also have access to promising investigational agents, when appropriate. In my faculty position at Duke University, I enjoy educating current oncologists as well as the next generation of physicians. Dr. Erba is highly rated in 23 conditions, according to our data.
