About Us
At Sierra Nevada Specialty Care, we are committed to identifying and treating kidney diseases early in their progression. With great courage and integrity, we embrace our responsibility to guide patients in making the right choices for their kidneys and their health to ensure the best possible quality of life. We accomplish this by valuing people, partnerships, and high-quality performance.
Northern Nevada is home to one of the largest and fastest-growing populations of diabetic patients in the country. Since diabetes is a leading contributor to kidney disease, we are seeing tremendous growth in chronic kidney disease among our residents. Our practice was established to better coordinate care for nephrology patients and to serve this growing population of patients requiring long-term kidney care.
The practice was founded in 1982 and has grown steadily to address our region’s needs, becoming the second largest nephrology group practice in the state of Nevada. We have a deep roster of skilled physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants serving patients throughout Reno, Sparks, Carson City, and the surrounding rural communities.
