Balboa Nephrology

Balboa Nephrology is one of the largest kidney-care medical groups in California, founded in San Diego in 1973 and grown from two physicians to roughly 60-plus board-certified nephrologists across San Diego, Orange County and Imperial Valley. It manages more than 28,000 kidney patients and 6,000 dialysis and transplant patients, runs its own clinical-research arm (Balboa Research, formerly the California Institute of Renal Research), a Vascular Access Center, and the Balboa Institute of Transplantation, and is a national leader in value-based kidney care through a joint venture with Evergreen Nephrology.
