Nephrologists diagnose and treat kidney diseases, including the conditions these diseases can produce, such as hypertension (high blood pressure), as well as diseases that can cause kidney failure, such as diabetes mellitus.
The nephrologists and other providers within the South County Medical Group (SCMG) collaborate and communicate closely with each other and with you to provide coordinated care to treat your kidney disease.
The SCMG is a group of highly trained providers from a variety of specialties, who work together to make certain you get the best possible care, close to home.
Please note that all patients are now required to have credit card on file to schedule an appointment.
To better serve all patients, we've implemented a $50 no-show policy for appointments that are missed or canceled with less than 24 hours’ notice. This helps us offer open slots to others who need care. The card will only be charged if that happens.
Gratitude comes in many forms
Take a moment to express your own appreciation by sharing your story, with a simple thank you, by nominating a caregiver, or with a gift of support.
