    After a major flare up of my low back disc issue, I had to get a PCP referral as an insurance…read morerequirement. Most all my providers are from Duke Health. My regular PCP was not available, but was able to get into see another very quickly. He provided the referral to ortho. Of course an appt was about 4 wks out unless in a severe need. My flareup was manageable and a lot of rest was calming things down. However I went on the wait list and got a reschedule for end of the wk. The PA I had was very good, patiently listening to my long history - 20 yrs of post disc surgery history with periodic flareups, daily aches and pains in various areas related to the nerves, and my past experience with PT. With only limited info from the X-ray, next stage is a MRI since I've not had an update since the surgery. With the MRI, more detail will help determine next steps. Possibly cortisone injections will be sufficient. I've just relocated here about 2.5 yrs ago, so I am establishing my healthcare anew. So far my Duke providers have been excellent. The only complaint is having to travel to Durham for many procedures because in my case having several replacement heart valves and a pacemaker require a full blown hospital setting "just in case". Plus there are MRI effects on the pacemaker due to my specific custom programming that could be reset. So to avoid any problems, I need the higher level of expertise at the "mothership". Otherwise, Heritage is extremely convenient being only 4 mi from home. In my first year here, I established my cardiac care at Duke Raleigh which is a reasonable drive. My first PCP was at Creedmore, not a terrible drive, but I eventually found a PCP PA at North Park which is much more convenient with backup PCPs and urgent care at heritage. Trigger finger issues started on my right hand about 4 yrs ago before relocating here. I got the initial injections which helped for about 6-9 months. A repeat set of injections, lasted much longer generally mitigating the locking up, still stiff at times but manageable. Eventually found finger on left hand started to lock up, so first PCP referred me to Duke ortho in Durham. Kind of hassle to drive there but went and those shots lasted quite a while. Just in recent months intermittently getting a third right hand finger locking up. So a got a new referral for Duke ortho at heritage - yay! At least this can be addressed more locally now. Not sure if Ortho dept at heritage is new or just recently expanded, but so far it has been far more convenient and so far things are moving along well.

    Dr Wittstein is AMAZING! She is very professional and has a great "bedside presence". PA Stewart…read moreleaves a bit to be desired as does Axel and the ladies upfront. It seems that Duke made a business decision to default to self check in. This discriminates against older folks and ESL persons (I'm both). Luckily, I'm computer literate so this is not a problem for me personally. That said, I always leave my appointments feeling a bit bummed having watched so many patients struggle to figure out the touch screens whilst the staff plays on their phones. DO BETTER, DUKE!
