General Info
In the years I have taught and practiced at UC San Diego (and for a time in the community), I have seen countless improvements in the care of kidney patients. Our understanding of kidney diseases and dialysis management has never been better. At the same time, our ability to prevent kidney transplant failure has markedly improved. We now better understand the risks of living kidney donation. Working with the transplant team at UCSD, and with others across the country, has helped us to successfully address these issues.Assoc Dir of Dialysis, UC San Diego, 1980-89 Head, Nephrology Teaching Svc, Mercy Hosp, 1981-85 Attending Physician, Postoperative Renal Transplant Outpatient Clinic, UC San Diego, 1982-present Director, Transplant Nephrology, UC San Diego, 1990 present Medical Director, Kidney & Pancreas Transplantation, UC San Diego, 1990-present Medical Director, Lifesharing Community Organ & Tissue Donation, San Diego, 1996-present.UC San Diego Health LinksFor more information, see http://health.ucsd.edu/specialties/nephrology/Pages/default.aspx.
