Emanuel, Shandal, S, MD

I became a doctor because I enjoy caring for the medical needs of Native Americans. I am a member of the Lumbee tribe from Lumberton, NC. I am very active in the community with my sponsorship of a local race car driver for the past 12 years and supporting the Haliwa Saponi Pow Wow annually. I strive to treat my patients as an extension of my family with the same compassion and level of care as if they were my family. I believe healthcare is a collaborative effort between the patient and the provider, and I encourage my patients to have an active role in their healthcare. My clinical interests include adult diabetes management and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling and spending time with my family.
