Robert Kenneth Lewis is a Duke cardiologist whose documented work focuses on cardiac electrophysiology, implantable cardiac devices, and lead extraction. He is listed as an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Duke. His training includes an M.D., M.S., Ph.D., and M.B.A. from the University of Louisville, internal medicine residency, cardiovascular medicine fellowship, and clinical cardiac electrophysiology fellowship at Duke from 2011 to 2014. After that fellowship, he worked at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and returned to Duke in 2015. In 2020, he was named Director of Duke’s Lead Management Program, where the team pioneered CT imaging for extraction planning and safety and hosted quarterly training sessions. His publications address device infections, extraction techniques, procedural imaging, and arrhythmia care.
