Overview


I am a physician-scientist with an academic career focus is geriatric nephrology.  The aim of my work is to transform the standard of care for vulnerable adults who have both advanced kidney disease and geriatric problems. I use epidemiology and health services research methodologies to identify effective novel interventions that integrate geriatric principles into kidney care settings. I lead a geriatric nephrology clinic at the Durham VA that integrates a brief geriatric assessment with kidney disease management and dialysis decision-making.
