Kidney disease is usually quiet until it is advanced. Seeing a kidney specialist earlier gives you more ways to protect the function you still have, and more time to decide what happens next.

That news is unsettling. It is also the point where there is the most left to work with.
Our nephrologists look for the cause, treat the things that are driving the loss, and explain every step in language you can repeat to your family. You stay in charge of the decisions; we make sure you understand them.
Getting started is simpler than most people expect.
Call (731) 300-6155 or ask your doctor to send a referral. We look at your history first so the visit starts where you are, not at the beginning.
A nephrologist reviews your labs, blood pressure and medications, then explains in plain language what is driving the change and what can be adjusted.
You leave with a written plan and a clinic that knows your name. We track your numbers over time and change course when something is not working.
Three areas cover the reason for most first visits. Each one links to a fuller explanation written for patients, not clinicians.
Start here if a lab result mentioned your kidneys.This is the largest part of what we do. We explain your eGFR and urine protein, look for the cause behind the numbers, and build a plan aimed at slowing the loss of function, including diet, blood pressure and medication review.

Already receiving dialysis? Your nephrologist can usually keep seeing you at the unit you go to now. How dialysis care works with us.
Twenty years of nephrology in West Tennessee, coordinated across more than 25 dialysis units, adds up to a record we are willing to publish.
These are counts from our own practice records for the years shown. They describe what happened for a group of patients over several years. They are not a prediction for any one person, and kidney outcomes depend on many things no clinic controls.

“Learning you have kidney disease can be frightening. But The Kidney Experts quickly allay your fears. Dr Shree Mulay was thorough and compassionate. He listened and the most incredible thing, he believed what I said! So impressed with the handouts he provided that recapped our appointment, and outlined my follow-up.”

Cost should not be the reason a kidney problem waits. If you do not see your plan, call our main line at (731) 300-6155 and we will check it with you, or read the full insurance list.
It starts with one appointment, earlier than most people think to make it.
