  1. I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Wellon when he was wrapping-up his training at Duke Medical Center. I was a patient at the Durham Veterans Administration Hospital suffering from complex partial seizures from an earlier closed-head trauma while in the USAF.
    Dr. Wellon was the kindest and most compassionate person with a wonderful bedside manner for me and my attending family members. It doesn’t surprise me that he has reached this level of expertise and I commend for his hard work and dedication.
    He is a great person and will be a leader in his field for many years.

    Respectfully,
