Doctor Carlos takes the time to listen to me. His Resident is excellent. I always feel that decisions on my care, albeit my recently diagnosed Parkinson's or my chronic issues.

Dr. Thai Nguyen came in first and spent about 30 minutes with me and we (my wife was also with me) went through all our concerns. He explained in great length and left no "stone unturned." Dr. Nguyen showed great concern and knowledge always. He answered all our questions to our complete satisfaction. And then the "primary" doctor, Dr. Christopher Carlos came in next and spent another 30+ minutes with all of us. I could not have been more satisfied with their response. It all made sense. What a great team UCSF Nephro has!!
