Referring Physicians

At Hypertension and Kidney Associates, we consider our referring physician to be our partners in the combined goal of improving the quality of life, and having better outcomes, for our patients. CKD is especially prevalent in patients with hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Patients with CKD are prone to repeated hospitalizations and have increased morbidity rates.  Recognizing that primary care physicians have a key role in the initial diagnosis of this high risk disease, we stand by our local physicians in co-managing the needs of their patients. Our efforts to reduce morbidity and mortality in CKD patients have focused on improving care in the earlier stages of disease. In this effective partnership with our primary care physicians and identifying patients during early detection, we can actively work towards preventing progression of CKD that leads to end stage renal disease ESRD. With a timely nephrology consultation, together, we prevent the progression of CKD, improve clinical outcomes by reducing hospitalizations and morbidity rates. and in turn become cost effective for all entities.
