It was about time to update our page. Diablo Nephrology merged with Chabot Nephrology and West Bay Nephrology to form West Coast Kidney Institute. We are the largest nephrology practice in the Bay Area extending from Brentwood down to San Francisco. We provide comprehensive kidney care including clinical trials for patients with cardiac, kidney, and metabolic disease.

West Coast Kidney Institute offers comprehensive kidney care for acute, chronic kidney disease, dialysis, and more across 15+ locations in Bay Area.

Prop 29 is nearly identical to Prop 23, which 63% of voters rejected in 2020. Prop 29 will again jeopardize approx. 80,000 CA dialysis patients.

Another year, another bill jeopardizing care and access to care for our dialysis patients. Please click the link and send a letter to Governor Newsom to ask him to VETO this bill.

Patients with kidney disease and renal failure depend on dialysis to survive. Our coalition is dedicated to protecting these patients throughout California.

Another unfortunately misguided bill narrowly passed by the California Senate and Assembly which jeopardizes the care for our ESRD patients. Please let Governor Newsome know to VETO this bill, just like Governor Brown did last year.
