Nephrologist in Lake Worth, TX

About our Lake Worth office

For many families in Azle, Lakeside and Eagle Mountain, our Lake Worth office means a shorter drive than heading into central Fort Worth for every kidney visit.

We care for adults with chronic kidney disease, high blood pressure, kidney stones and changes in kidney lab results. If your doctor has mentioned a rising creatinine, a falling eGFR, or protein in your urine, a nephrologist can find the cause and build a plan to protect your kidneys.

When kidney disease is advancing, we explain every treatment option early, including home dialysis, in-center dialysis and transplant evaluation, so you can choose with time to prepare.

Kidney conditions we treat

• Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and acute kidney injury
• High blood pressure (hypertension)
• Kidney stones (nephrolithiasis)
• Electrolyte and fluid imbalance
• Glomerulonephritis
