Hear from Our Staff

“I love working at Durham Regional so much that I drive 158 miles round trip five days a week, and I wish I could come to work more. I like the people I work with, and I love being able to help patients. We also work for one of the best health systems in the country! What more could anyone ask for? It really is a joy working here!”

-- Louis Dreyfus, Diagnostic radiology

“I moved to North Carolina in 2008. I now work with the best co-workers I have ever come across. My unit manager is very involved with the staff and strongly suggests more involvement from my peers. In my 12 years of nursing, this has been by far my best learning experience. I love Durham Regional Hospital.”

-- Lori Ackert, RN, Orthopaedics

“I started my career at Duke and have been here for 24 years now. It’s a great place to build your career and I’m proud to say I’m a Durham Regional Hospital employee.”

-- Bill Baker, RN
