The Nephrology Department at Great Falls Clinic Specialty Center provides specialized kidney care for patients throughout Great Falls, Montana, and surrounding communities. Our board-certified nephrologist and experienced advanced practice provider are experts in diagnosing and treating all types of kidney (renal) disease and related conditions, including complex hypertension cases that affect many Montana residents.
Our kidney specialists treat the complete spectrum of renal conditions–from early-stage kidney disease to advanced kidney failure requiring dialysis. Our team offers Montana patients convenient access to this life-sustaining kidney replacement therapy without traveling outside the region by partnering with local experts.
For patients who have received kidney transplants elsewhere, our nephrology team provides comprehensive post-transplant care right here in Montana. This includes specialized management of anti-rejection medications and regular monitoring to ensure transplant success.
Many kidney conditions develop silently without noticeable symptoms. If your primary care provider detects signs of kidney dysfunction or difficult-to-control blood pressure during routine testing, they may refer you to our nephrology specialists at Great Falls Clinic for advanced care and management.
Trust the experienced nephrology team at Great Falls Clinic, delivering exceptional kidney care to Montana patients with compassion and expertise.
