"Dr Duncan has treated a couple of my athletes in the past. She showed empathy and was clear with her explanations of realistic expectations. Her follow up was more than I could have asked for.  Thank you Dr Cathy!"  -Jackie Miller/Britfit

"I am a physical therapist in the Cary area and I can't strongly recommend Dr. Duncan enough. Her patients rave about her and the quality of care that she provides is above and beyond what other pain management doctors provide. She sincerely cares about her patients and their improvement."  - Bonnie Mangino PT, MPT, COMT, VRT

​"I went to Dr. Duncan upon the recommendation from Dr. Dennis Bullard, who is a top notch Neurosurgeon in the whole State of NC..  Dr. Duncan was very professional and extremely concerned about my condition.  Her office staff is very friendly all the while being very professional as well. After the initial consultation, when I returned to the office on my next visit, Dr. Duncan explained what she was going to do. She again was very professional and  the treatment was over before I knew it began."  Rating 10/10  -Jerry Darrow

​"I'm here to say that Prolotherapy for my lumbar spine is an ABSOLUTE LIFESAFER. What a gift to avoid surgery!  I am a very energetic 70 year young woman with degenerative discs in my low back.  If it were not by the Grace of God, that my physician, Dr. Goode, referred me to Dr. Duncan, I do not know how I would be functioning, not good, that is certain.  Last year at this time, I not only had degeneration, but bone spurs in my lower back that caused horrible spams down the left side of my body. I walked into Dr. Duncan's office using a cane. Dr. Duncan's prolotherapy treatment along with dietary improvement reducing inflammation has given me a new lease on life.  No cane, no spasms. I will work with Dr. Duncan for maintenance. Maintenance in any aspect of life is required for maximal health.  I prefer to be well than to get well.  Dr. Duncan will always be a "Spoke" in my "Wellness Wheel". Thank you, Dr. Duncan for your gift of wellness to us, your patients. May God grant you a long healthy life for your service to us, your patients."     - Kathy Gastineau

"I have personally know Dr. Duncan for 15 years and I would highly recommend Atlantic Spine & Pain. Dr. Duncan is very professional and is one of the very few doctors I have worked with that will take the time to get to know you so she can treat your pain. Her office is very professional and the staff is thorough and very polite. I have had chronic & debilitating back pain and made the mistake of going to my PCP in the past. Since I have been seeing Dr. Duncan I am able to live pain free. It is WORTH the trip to Apex to see her. A+"       - Tony

"I am absolutely thrilled with the results of my treatments and the time given to me by the doctor and staff. My pain has gone from excruciating to manageable. -- Dr. Duncan assessed my condition and recommended treatment. The combination of injections, prescription drug, and physical therapy had me feeling so much better in just a few months. I highly recommend Dr. Duncan!"      - Anonymous

"My care was wonderful!  All of the staff members are wonderful and willing to help anybody.  I would not come if this was not a wonderful place to be. -- I would highly recommend Dr. Duncan at Atlantic Pain Consultants for anyone that has back problems.  The help and the staff members are always very understanding and helpful."     - Anonymous

"Gentle and caring Dr and staff!! -- My experience at APC was exceptional! I found a very educated and caring staff and Dr Duncan has a very gentle touch with giving injections in my back. Under the circumstances of being in pain, and a bit irritable, I found myself in much better spirits upon leaving, the positive vibes are contagious. I feel much better and have a new lease on life :)"     - Anonymous

"Very professional, yet very personable. Dr. Duncan is always courteous, respectful, and extremely friendly. I see no need, or reason to improve on the level of care provided. -- My experience at Atlantic Pain Consultants has always been great. The staff is always courteous, friendly and helpful, Dr. Duncan is very professional, and personable. She's the only doctor I've ever looked foreward to seeing."     - Wagoner

"Dr. Duncan and her staff are very friendly and professional in everything they do.  I am very pleased in the treatment I received and would gladly recommend them to anyone."     - A.B.

"Dr. Duncan is very thorough about testing and diagnosing the multiple issues I have had with long standing injuries to my L-4 and L-5 lumbar, herniated disk, sciatica leg pain,  S-Joint, sacrum, hip, and adductor and groin muscoskelatal pain. I trust  her opinion and have referred her to family, friends, and my other Dr's and physicians."     - J. Willard

"Dr Duncan is professional, succinct in her interaction and caring. I have had multiple treatments by other doctors and to date only Dr. Duncan has hit the mark and  treated me successfully. Dr. Duncan was with a large practice when I first met her and I have followed her since. She is the best and I have recommended her to friends."     - Laws

"I completed my series of shots on 8/4/15. You could not find a more professional staff in a medical office.  Dr Duncan is perfect. My pain started over 2 yrs ago. May 1st I had quit playing golf, by June 1st I was hurting.  This was worse than the pain of a rupture in 1980.  I am back to normal.  Golf this week."     - R.A. Miller

"Dr. Duncan and her staff are all courteous, professional and compassionate. After referral to Dr. Duncan by my neurosurgeon, with the goal of avoiding a fifth spinal surgery, she explained my options and outlined a series of recommended treatments. My initial pain level can be described as both high and chronic, although it was manageable during those treatments; allowing me to maintain without interruption a fairly rigorous business travel schedule. Dr. Duncan uses a text message service to remind you of upcoming appointments, which is a very welcome feature for those with busy schedules. At every appointment, she asked about the level of pain before and after treatment, and its specific location; I appreciated those questions and the ability to provide feedback. After completion of that therapy, my pain level was reduced to being intermittent and low, which substantially improved my overall quality of life.   

Regrettably, two days after finishing those treatments, I took my first trip to an Emergency Department in an ambulance after slipping down a flight of stairs at home. While on the floor, unable to move for over an hour, my first instinct was to contact her office, which I did, to talk through my options. I wanted to avoid a 911 call if at all possible. I later reflected on that call to her office and realized that she had definitely earned my trust such that my initial instinct was to call her first, and then 911 (well, my family did, but that’s another story!). She re-initiated treatment immediately, and reduced the pain to a manageable level such that I am now once again able to exercise and enjoy a better quality of life!  

I highly recommend Dr. Duncan for her medical expertise, compassion and accessibility, a rare combination in today’s healthcare environment. She provides comprehensive and coordinated medical services related to spinal pain, and you can consolidate all spinal pain therapy through her. I also can’t speak highly enough about her entire staff, from Jessica, her exceptional and compassionate assistant and radiologic technologist, to James and Hannah in the front office. Collectively, they exemplify exceptional medical care."    
- D. Brown, PhD, MPH, MA

"I can't say enough about Dr Duncan and her team!!! As a medical provider with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, I am quite particular about my own care and do a fair amount of research on treatments and providers for myself. After discovering prolotherapy and discussing it with my orthopedic provider, I chose Dr Duncan and her team for my prolotherapy treatments, and I couldn't have been more pleased with my choice! They have been compassionate and helpful throughout this entire process and made sure I knew exactly what to expect. I drive 3 hours for my appointments, and don't mind at all, because of the level of care and knowledge that Dr Duncan and her team have brought to my treatment regimen. Thank you all for your help to keep me going and doing the things I enjoy, you have truly changed my life on a daily basis for the better."     - V. Cannon
