Why choose Austin Kidney Associates?

Our nephrologists direct all aspects of kidney care including the diagnosis and management of the spectrum of kidney diseases including diabetic and hypertensive kidney disease as well as other acute and chronic kidney diseases, kidney failure, electrolyte abnormalities, hypertension, and kidney transplants.  We emphasize preventative medicine with patient management plans aimed at reducing the rate of loss of kidney function and avoiding the late complications of kidney disease.  Our physicians are experts in the care of dialysis patients as well.  Our nurses, nurse practitioners, and staff are committed to helping our patients achieve good health and improve their quality of life.  Further, we strive to keep our patients well informed on recent medical research findings and opportunities for patient participation in research studies.
