A physician since 2000, James Duncan is director of primary care for Saint Joseph Health. His areas of interest include nutrition, fitness, wellness and travel medicine. He sees patients ages 15 and older at Saint Joseph Medical Group – Primary Care.
Dr. Duncan uses the Golden Rule, “Do unto others as you would have done unto you” as his approach to patient care. He said he demonstrates humankindness “by showing compassion, respect and fairness to others, just as I would hope to receive in return.”
He was inspired to become a physician because he found the mix of science and humanity appealing, and chose his specialty because he enjoys the variety of hospital and office care. “My favorite part of my job is catching up with my patients on a personal level since from their last visit,” he said.
Dr. Duncan received an undergraduate degree from Kentucky Wesleyan College and his medical degree from the University of Kentucky College of Medicine. He completed his internal medicine residency at Mayo Clinic School of Medicine.
In his time away from work, he enjoys fishing, wildflowers, racket sports and wood-fired pizza.
