About Me

Care Philosophy
  • I consider the patient the most important member of the care team when treating kidney disease. I consider a large part of my job as a physician is to make sometimes complicated and confusing information understandable to every patient so that they can play an active part in their care. I approach the treatment of kidney diseases from a molecular level and focus on specific therapies based on physiology and evidence-based practice,and try to make those therapies as individualized as possible
