Dr. Vidhya Karivedu

I am a medical oncologist who primarily treats patients with head and neck cancer and lung cancer. I also do clinical research trials. I believe that it’s important to provide all the available treatment options to the patients including clinical trials before we mutually agree on a treatment plan. My primary goal is to provide exceptional care to my patients as well as their families. My focus is compassionate patient care tailored to each individual patient. I am constantly inspired and motivated by my patients and families, and I am very excited to be part of Duke team. Outside of medicine, I like spending time with my husband and daughter, and outdoor activities.
