During my training, I was drawn to spine surgery after observing how severely spine disease can affect a person's quality of life and how a well-planned, well-executed surgery can restore it. At Duke Health, I work in a collaborative, patient-first environment focused on the best outcomes. I see my job as a partnership with my patients, integrating their goals with available treatment options to decide on the most appropriate plan. My practice focuses on minimally invasive spine surgery, particularly endoscopic techniques, to treat various spinal conditions. Dr. Huie is board certified in American Board Of Neurological Surgery.

Philosophy of care | I strive to treat every patient as a whole person – not just a diagnosis or imaging finding. I know facing a neurosurgical problem can be intimidating, and I aim to meet that with compassion, clear communication and respect. Listening closely and understanding what matters most to you is at the heart of how I care for people. I’m a logical thinker who values evidence-based medicine, but I also believe strongly in creativity and flexibility – especially when the path isn’t straightforward. Some of the best care comes from balancing solid science with open-minded problem-solving. As a surgeon, I know I’m being trusted in a deeply personal way, and that trust is something I take seriously. Building strong, honest relationships with my patients is one of the most meaningful parts of what I do. | Why I entered medicine | Medicine – and eventually neurosurgery – felt like a natural fit for my fascination with the brain, the spinal cord and the complexity of the human nervous system. It offered a rare blend of intellectual challenge, technical precision and the opportunity to help people during some of the most difficult moments in their lives. Problem-solving is at the core of how I think. I’m drawn to the logic of piecing together complex clinical puzzles and the hands-on focus that surgery requires. Just as meaningful to me is the human side of this work – being present for patients and their families, listening with compassion and building trust through thoughtful, personal care. | Community involvement | For me, being a physician means staying connected to the broader community and finding ways to serve beyond the hospital. As a neurosurgeon, that might look like education on brain and spine health, injury prevention, or simply being a resource when questions or concerns arise. To me, that’s what it means to be a good steward of the community I serve. | Personal interests | Outside of work I enjoy gardening, cooking, reading and being outdoors – whether it’s hiking, camping or simply spending quiet time in nature, which I find healing for everyone. At home I love spending time with my husband, daughter and our dogs and cats. Dr. Guley is board certified in American Board Of Neurological Surgery - General Neurology. Dr. Guley is currently accepting new patients.

Philosophy of care | It gives me tremendous satisfaction when I can help patients better understand their disease and provide them a path toward relief. My philosophy centers on understanding everyone deals with their health issues in their own way and that my role is to provide them tools to continue on their desired path. | Why I entered medicine | Medicine allowed me an opportunity to combine my love of science and technology and my desire to improve the lives of those around me. My father was a physician, and seeing how his profession provided him the opportunity to give back to the community through health care inspired me to follow a similar path.

Whit Morris is a Neurosurgery provider practicing medicine in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Dr. Morris is currently accepting new patients.

Philosophy of care | My approach to neurosurgery is focused on education, advocacy and patient-centric care. Navigating the health care system can be daunting for patients, especially when sick and vulnerable. I educate you not only on your disease process and treatment options, but also about what you can expect during each stage of treatment. I am trained in both open cerebrovascular and endovascular neurosurgery, allowing me to explore novel techniques to best serve each patient. Sometimes treatment requires open surgery or an endovascular procedure. Other times, the best course of action is non-surgical follow-up. | Why I entered medicine | As a child I was always curious about why people became sick and how they got better. Medicine was a natural choice for me to pursue my passion for understanding human anatomy and physiology while providing a service to better my community. | Community involvement | Growing the cerebrovascular program at LVHN will require us to open ourselves to our large community of primary care clinicians and other referring specialists. It requires outreach to patients, physicians and all other allied health professionals to understand what services we can provide and what we as a community can do to better our overall health. I and my colleagues will help increase awareness and advocacy for stroke and other vascular diseases such as brain aneurysms, AVMs, cavernomas and carotid artery disease. Education is the foundation for building a stronger, healthier community and inspiring the next generation to take us even further. | Personal interests | I enjoy time with my wife and son, traveling, cooking and trying new food and restaurants. I’m an avid tennis fan and hope to attend all the grand slam events at some point with my family. His clinical expertise encompasses Stroke. Dr. Kaul is currently accepting new patients.
