Highland Ranch Dialysis Center

Though the staff at this dialysis center is great, I can’t give this center any recommendation whatsoever because the nephrologist are so negligent. Their office will not let you speak to them without an appointment, and generally makes it impossible to get in contact with them with any matters they don’t consider to be a dire emergency. Notes asking for anything, such as to approve the use of any medications, are completely ignored unless you pester them repeatedly– and nothing will get done in a timely manner. They allowed my father to go four days without dialysis when his fistula was clogged instead of having anyone work on a weekend, and gave him medications to shed potassium without checking if he was healthy enough to withstand it. Ultimately the complications which related to all these things contributed to his death.
There is no other dialysis center in town, but please don’t make the same mistakes we did. If you have to go here you have to educate yourself on you or your loved one’s care. Please do not rely on these doctors.
