As a world-class academic health care system, Duke Health strives to transform medicine and health locally and globally. We do this through innovative scientific research, rapid translation of breakthrough discoveries, educating future clinical and scientific leaders, advocating and practicing evidence-based medicine to improve community health, and leading efforts to eliminate health inequalities.

We seek to create innovative collaborations with organizations equally committed to providing the highest quality care and an exceptional patient experience.

We recognize that to lead, we must also be willing to partner—with patients, health care organizations, educators, and clinicians. This is our driving force. And this is how we advance health together.
