These experiences allow our fellows to care for outpatients from diverse backgrounds. All outpatient locations have on site radiology, laboratory services, computers and access to the Case Medical Center Electronic Health Record and Radiology Viewing systems.

Nurses and technicians experienced in pediatric dialysis, a renal dietician, and a renal social worker provide ongoing care to this complex patient population.
