Our Comprehensive Services Overview

  • End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD)

    End-stage renal disease is the final stage of chronic kidney disease, where kidneys can no longer function adequately. Patients often require dialysis or kidney transplantation for survival.

  • Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)

    Chronic kidney disease is a gradual loss of kidney function over time. It can result from various conditions, including diabetes and hypertension, and can lead to kidney failure if not managed properly.

  • Dialysis-related Conditions

    Patients undergoing dialysis may experience various complications, such as hypotension, infections, and bone mineral disorders. Regular monitoring and management are essential for these patients.

  • Kidney Transplantation

    Kidney transplantation is a surgical procedure to replace a diseased kidney with a healthy one from a donor. It can significantly improve quality of life and kidney function for eligible patients.

Testimonials

I was most pleased to meet my new nephrologist, Dr. J. Thomas. He answered all my questions and concerns. He prescribed alternative Rxs and provided extensive reference literature Re potassium and foods. My PCP (A, Celerian) has since agreed with his recommended changes. Dr. Thomas also advised me on relaxing my attitude about diet and opined that a glass or two of wine daily would not be detrimental - much to my liking.
Don M.
This was my first virtual visit with a doctor, and it went very well. I liked not having to drive the half hour to see him (in the snow, as it turned out), and since this was a discussion and not an exam, an in-person visit was not necessary.
Norman N.
Kind, understanding, includes me in important decisions - always makes sure I am totally informed about every aspect of my kidney disease and possible treatments
