Movement for BP & CKD
Movement is medicine—especially when it’s consistent.
You don’t need a gym membership to support kidney health. Short walks, gentle stretching, and regular movement throughout the day can improve blood pressure, energy, sleep, and mood.
Start where you are. Stack small wins. Sustainable habits—not extremes—are what protect your future health.

Protein in Urine (Proteinuria 101)
Sometimes the earliest warning signs are easy to miss.
Foamy urine can be harmless—but it can also signal protein in the urine, an early sign that kidneys are under stress. A simple urine ACR test can help catch changes before symptoms appear.

Early detection creates options: medication adjustments, lifestyle shifts, and a plan that protects kidney function long-term. If you notice changes, say something. Prevention works best when we act early.

Nursing & MA Teams
Before the provider enters the room, someone has already been listening.
Nurses and medical assistants notice the details—the fatigue, the progress, the questions that matter most. They translate medical language, steady nerves, and keep care moving forward behind the scenes.

Healthcare runs on teamwork, and their presence is felt in every visit. Thank you for being the steady heartbeat of patient care.

Sodium Smart Swaps
Many patients are surprised to learn how much sodium comes from packaged foods—soups, sauces, deli meats—long before the salt shaker comes out. Those small amounts add up, affecting blood pressure and kidney workload.

Start with awareness. Choose fresh foods when possible. Taste before salting. Use herbs, citrus, and spices to build flavor without overload. Reading labels can be one of the most powerful prevention tools you use.

Small swaps create real change—especially over time.

MLK Day
“Everybody can be great, because everybody can serve.” On this day, we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by recommitting to care that treats every person with dignity. In waiting rooms and exam rooms, service looks like listening fully, explaining clearly, and doing right by each patient—no matter what. May our work reflect the equity and compassion Dr. King envisioned.

We’re Here When You Need Us
The best care is the care you can actually reach.
Whether it’s your first appointment of the year or a question between labs, timely access matters. Health doesn’t pause between visits—and neither should support. Getting answers, understanding next steps, and feeling heard shouldn’t be complicated.
Good care feels human. It feels responsive. And it feels like someone’s in your corner.

Ask your provider to walk you through your numbers: what’s typical for you, what changes matter most, and where prevention can make the biggest impact. Knowledge isn’t just data—it’s direction.

Physician Story - Dr. Hunter.
Medicine isn’t just numbers on a chart; it’s the life those numbers belong to.
In the exam room, I’m listening for more than labs. I’m listening for the morning routine, the foods someone loves, the energy they want back, the future they’re trying to protect. From there, we build a plan that fits real life, not a textbook.

Good medicine blends science with empathy. It explains tradeoffs, adjusts when needed, and celebrates progress no matter how small. That balance is what turns information into action and care into trust.

National Blood Donor Month
A quiet room, a gentle squeeze, and 10 minutes later—someone’s tomorrow gets a second chance. In January, we honor blood donors who help save lives every day. Many patients living with complex conditions—including kidney disease—benefit from a strong blood supply. If you’re eligible, consider donating, and if you can’t, help by spreading the word. One simple act can ripple through a family, a clinic, a community.

Winter Hydration & Kidneys
A patient told us, “I just don’t feel thirsty in winter.” That’s common—cold air lowers thirst cues—but your kidneys still need steady fluids. Try packing a small water bottle with your gloves, choose warm herbal teas, and keep high-sodium snacks to a minimum. If you’re on medications or fluid restrictions, ask your provider what’s right for you. Small, steady sips can make a real difference—especially when temps drop, and heaters rise.
