About Us

A practice built on understanding

Three Rivers Nephrology and Hypertension Associates was founded on a straightforward belief: kidney and blood pressure conditions deserve a practice that treats the whole person, not just the lab results. Our physicians bring specialized training in nephrology to every consultation, combining the latest clinical guidelines with the kind of continuity that comes from knowing your history.

Located in the heart of Pittsburgh's Oakland neighborhood at 1401 Forbes Avenue, we serve patients across the metropolitan area who are managing chronic kidney disease, hypertension, electrolyte disorders, or complex medication regimens. Whether you've just been referred for evaluation or you've been under care for years, we meet you where you are.

Evidence-based

Treatment decisions are grounded in current clinical guidelines and the best available research, not惯例 or convention.

Patient-centered

We take the time to explain diagnoses, discuss options, and ensure you understand your care plan before moving forward.

Coordinated

We work closely with your primary care physician and other specialists to keep your care coordinated and consistent.

Accessible

Our office is centrally located in Oakland with convenient hours and a team that responds to your questions promptly.

Our Approach

A process that respects your time

01

Initial Consultation

We begin with a thorough review of your medical history, current medications, and any prior lab work. New patients are encouraged to bring records from referring physicians.

02

Diagnostic Evaluation

Comprehensive lab work, imaging, and assessment to establish a clear diagnosis and determine the stage and cause of your kidney condition.

03

Personalized Care Plan

Together, we develop a treatment strategy that aligns with your health goals, lifestyle, and preferences — with clear explanations at every step.

04

Ongoing Partnership

Kidney health is managed over time. We schedule regular follow-ups, adjust treatment as needed, and remain available for questions between visits.

"For the first time, I felt like someone was actually listening — explaining my numbers, walking through every option, and treating me like a person instead of a diagnosis."
