Physician Consultations

We are pleased to assist you in the care of your patient's nephrology and hypertension issues. We are available throughout the Tristate region, including Southwestern Ohio, Northern Kentucky and Southeastern Indiana. .

As described elsewhere, we offer your patients more than 300 years of collective experience and comprehensive nephrology care. We see patients in both the hospital and outpatient settings and are happy to treat the entire spectrum of renal diseases as well as uncontrolled hypertension.

The majority of our patients have some form of chronic kidney disease, and our goal is to preserve as much renal function as possible; if they progress to needing dialysis, we will work with your patient to find the appropriate dialysis modality, including incenter hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, or home hemodialysis; and if appropriate, we will also assist your patient in his/her pre-transplant and post-transplant needs.

If we can be of assistance to you and your patient, the consultation process would work as follows:

Please complete the consultation request.
