About Me
I approach health through prevention, emphasizing healthy eating and lifestyle choices. My professional interests include general health, healthy pregnancy, chronic pelvic pain, high-risk pregnancy, specializing in minimally invasive and robotic surgery and improving surgical outcomes, female infertility, and educating the next generation of caregivers. I make a strong effort at getting to know my patients so I can tailor their treatment according to their values and beliefs. Communication and the doctor-patient relationship are among the aspects of being an OB/GYN that are the most rewarding to me. I love to operate on a variety of conditions and work hard to continue to improve surgical techniques that reduce recovery time and get patients home quickly and safely. I chose this specialty because caring for healthy women and treating specific diseases provides me the opportunity to use a large range of personal skills.

The Patient Rating score is an average of all responses to care provider related questions on our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Learn more about our survey process. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score. Patients who see some types of providers receive a different version of the patient satisfaction survey. Those results are not available on DukeHealth.org.
