Patients are seen upon referral from their primary care provider for evaluation and management of pediatric nephrology problems. Appointments are regularly scheduled in Tampa and St. Petersburg.
Note: If your child has Managed Care, HMO, Medipass, or Medicaid HMO insurance that requires authorization, please call your child’s primary care physician as soon as possible to obtain authorization before your appointment with us, as well as any lab tests and X-rays. Otherwise, you may be responsible for all charges which pertain to the visit.
