Carol D. Burk, MD

I absolutely love working with children, adolescents, and their families. When I was first exposed to pediatrics, I was impressed by the long-term career satisfaction of the physicians and others in the field. I enjoy that everyone working at Durham Pediatrics truly cares about the children we see here. I particularly value the ability to have a long-term relationship with a child, and his or her family, which allows me to tailor the latest medical recommendations to fit an individual situation. My approach with patients is collaborative -- I like to hear parents' opinions and impressions, since they are the ultimate exclusive expert on the day-to-day well-being and behavior of their child. Combining this with my medical experience and expertise results in the best outcomes for children. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with friends and my family, which now includes adult children.
