Duke Raleigh Hospital
I grew up in Durham and I am extremely proud to work here at Duke. All of my family members still call the Bull City home.

I specialize in hip and knee replacement and am very fortunate to do so. We have the ability to help so many people with these operations. It is extremely rewarding to help someone get back to doing the things they want to do with their life. Duke is the kind of place where you are challenged by the most difficult cases weekly and I appreciate that fact.
