Patient Stories

Trusted by Our Community

Hear from patients and families who have experienced the difference personalized nephrology care can make.

After being diagnosed with stage 3 kidney disease, I was overwhelmed and scared. The team at Nephrology Associates took the time to explain everything, answered every question, and made me feel like I had a real partner in my health. I'm still here, still fighting, because they gave me hope.

Margaret T.
Cape Girardeau, MO

My father has been on dialysis for three years now, and the staff here treat him like family. They remember his birthday, check in on him between visits, and always take the extra minute to make sure he's comfortable. It's rare to find that kind of genuine care.

R
Robert K.
Jackson, MO

I transferred my care from St. Louis because I wanted a doctor who actually knew my history. Dr. and the entire nursing staff have been exceptional. They caught a medication issue that two other specialists missed. This practice saves lives.
