About Dr. Tiff Cagle

Tiff Cagle, MD (she/they/Dr.) is a board-certified family medicine physician, sex educator, and certified coach from Durham, North Carolina. Like many others, she grew up in an environment where conversations about sex were rare and almost always centered around shame. Through challenging the sex-negative attitudes she was taught, she developed a passion for helping others feel empowered to embrace their authentic self.

Dr. Cagle chose to specialize in family medicine because of her desire to provide care through the lens of each person’s mind, body, relationships, and community. After years of traditional medical practice, she’s now bringing this holistic approach to her work in sexual health. She received her medical degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine, where she first discovered her passion for decreasing stigma around sex while providing HIV testing and counseling. She went on to complete her residency training at Duke University Hospital with a concentration in Law, Ethics, and Health Policy, and now holds a consulting position in Duke’s Department of Community and Family Medicine providing resident lectures and mentorship.
