For Cristina, nephrology is more than a specialty; it’s personal. Having watched her father navigate life on dialysis, she understands firsthand the challenges, fears, and hopes that kidney patients and their families face. That lived experience shapes the way she shows up for every patient — as a knowledgeable provider, yes, but also as someone who truly gets it.
Cristina believes that the best care is personalized care. She takes the time to understand each patient’s unique circumstances, goals, and concerns, building relationships rooted in trust and open communication. Her patients can expect a partner in their care.
