Dr. Wheeler is excellent, but who really shines are the support staff at this location. They are always happy, from the front desk to medical assistants, they are all competent and really kind.

Dr. Bailey was wonderful! It's been a while since a doctor actually spoke to me like an adult and had a discussion with me rather than just going through the motions. We spoke about family, kids, health, and her plan for my testing and how we could proceed based on the results. She's just a great person who cares about her patients and I'd have had a beer there with her if we could! She deserves all the praise!

My dad's first visit was today. The staff at Columbia nephrology went above and beyond my expectations. I had my doubts but Celeste made me feel comfortable with the questions that she asked, how she asked them, and how she already had his information in the system which means she had prepared herself before we got there which made the visit move more smoothly. She even found the name of the doctor that he saw in New Jersey. Awesome!! Then Dr Wheeler enters the room. He is caring, patient, and knowledgeable. He didn't just say here's the results and here's the medicine. He took his time and explained everything even how the kidney works(pen and paper style). This way if I forget I had the paper to refer to. Next was the blood work. As we entered that room the ladies were so pleasant. The office manager showed her concern for making sure that we had a good visit! And this was the first time that my dad was not afraid to give blood because the other lady was very gentle. KUDOS to the doctor and staff 🎉🎉
