Supporting kidney patients every step of the way

We put patients above all else

Evergreen Nephrology was founded on the belief that taking the time to understand a person—not just their disease—drives lasting change. We partner with providers to offer compassionate and tailored support. Our team goes beyond addressing patients’ medical needs. We look at how patients feel physically, emotionally, mentally, and socially. This helps us understand what patients care most about. Our team is focused on building trust and connecting with each patient so that they feel seen and heard. We help guide them forward in their health journey.

Our purpose

We empower people with kidney disease to live each day to the fullest.

Evergreen was founded on the belief that real change starts with understanding the whole person beyond the disease. Our team partners with nephrologists and providers to deliver compassionate, tailored support. We focus on physical, emotional, and social aspects to learn what matters most to patients. By building trust and making patients feel valued, we help them move forward in their health journey.

Our purpose

We empower people with kidney disease to live each day to the fullest.
Our core focus is first and foremost on helping people living with kidney disease. These patients may have kidney disease, but it doesn’t define them. We’re here to provide the right resources and support to help them do better each day. Our hope is that patients spend less time worrying about managing their health and more time doing what they love.
What drives us forward

Guiding principles

At the heart of everything we do are the values that guide our mission and shape the way we care for others.

Patient-centered 

Because nothing matters more than positively impacting as many lives as possible.

Respectful

As we seek to understand others, appreciate differences, and show empathy.

People-driven

Because we're fueled by our most valuable asset—those who are devoted to our purpose.

Integrity

We act with honesty, doing what’s right even when it’s hard.

Persistent

In our efforts to continuously learn, collaborate, problem solve, and evolve our care.

Bold

In our actions by thinking big, taking risks, and holding ourselves accountable.

Why value-based
care

We care for people on a more personal level, like they’re family. Our model focuses on the whole person, not just their illness. Within a value-based care model, we learn what matters most to them to maximize wellness. Our Interdisciplinary Care Team brings this to life, working to help each person feel whole again.

Leadership Team

Evergreen Nephrology partners with top nephrology leaders to shape the future of kidney care. Our Evergreen Physicians Leadership Council (EPLC) brings together experienced nephrologists to guide best practices and clinical strategies.
