Our Philosophy:
Our services are offered in partnership with your motivated investment in striving for optimal health and protection of kidney function. We rely on the close support of your family physician to supervise and coordinate your care needs. This team strategy helps to ensure success in your treatment. It is our primary objective to forestall and prevent the need for dialysis. When dialysis is required, however, we will coordinate preparations for this transition. Transplantation is promoted actively as a preemptive strategy over dialysis for all suitable candidates.
