Nephrology and Hypertension Patient Resources

Patients are typically referred to Nephrology Physicians by their primary care physician. Our office staff will work closely with your doctor’s office to ensure that we have the most accurate information on your current medical condition, including the results of any recent medical tests. If required by your insurance carrier, we will request that your primary care physician secure the appropriate prior authorizations from your insurance company.

Our New Patient Referrals Coordinator will contact you upon receiving the information from your doctor’s office. A New Patient Packet will be mailed to provide you the opportunity to complete the required forms in advance and bring them to your first appointment. Our Coordinator will also identify a convenient time and schedule your initial visit with one of our nephrologists.

Please bring the following information to your first appointment with our nephrologist:

• All of your prescription bottles, including any over-the-counter medications
• All of your current insurance coverage membership ID cards
• Any information, or copies of records, provided by your primary care physician
• All completed forms from the New Patient Packet you received in the mail

If you are an established patient of Nephrology Physicians, please visit our Patient Portal for additional resources.

If you are an established patient and need to create a secure account, please contact our office at 574-273-6767.
