Included in the division is the section of Pediatric Rheumatology with an additional physician and RN devoted to Rheumatology. The division has an active inpatient and outpatient presence with a busy end-stage renal disease program including dialysis and transplantation, as well as procedures including acute dialysis (PD, HD and CRRT) and renal biopsies.
Additionally, the division has an active ACGME approved fellowship program, and an active clinical research program with involvement in the Pediatric Nephrology Research Consortium (PNRC), the ASN, ASPN, IPNA and IPTA.
