Founded in 1981 as a patient-centered, community-based nonprofit, we are committed to ensuring that our patients and their family members receive top-quality, convenient and compassionate care. All our centers represent a deep and long-lasting commitment to the communities we serve.
In collaboration with partners in the medical community, we strive to deliver excellent care and patient support services everywhere we work.

Our services include:
In-Center Hemodialysis—A comfortable and welcoming environment with state-of-the-art equipment, our centers have a dedicated team of nephrologists, nurses, dietitians and social workers who support the total healthcare needs of our patients. Centers are open early mornings through late evenings six days a week to accommodate patient schedules.
Home Dialysis—We offer training and support for peritoneal dialysis and home hemodialysis, giving patients a convenient way to dialyze in the comfort of their home. Home patients receive support from dietitians, social workers, financial administrators and other support staff, just as our in-center patients do.
Hospital Dialysis—We provide local hospitals with in-patient dialysis services for patients needing dialysis care while in the hospital.
Community Health Education—We offer community education classes for people with chronic kidney disease. Classes teach people how to stay healthy and active with CKD and how to slow down the progression of the disease. Classes are also available for those preparing for dialysis, to learn about treatment options and how to live with dialysis.
