Why Choose Us?
EBNMG is made up of the highest caliber health care providers. All EBNMG nephrologists are Board certified in Nephrology and many have additional training/certification. This additional expertise directly benefits the patients and provides superior care. Our providers are available to manage any difficult to manage kidney related issues.
The EBNMG team strives to provide a professional and trusted bond by creating an everlasting relationship between our providers, the patient and the referring primary care physician. We encourage a team approach to management of kidney disease and its complications with contributions by all team members. The EBNMG team provides proactive and timely communication to the patient and their primary care physician after each visit. Our goal is to keep everyone informed of the changes made to the treatment plan.
