The Kidney Clinic is internationally renowned for patient care and research in primary kidney diseases and their related issues, as well as transplants. In fact, our transplant program is consistently ranked by U.S. News & World Report as a top provider and one of the largest and most experienced in the world — using more living donors than any other. Additionally, three of our University of Minnesota Physicians nephrologists, Mark Paller, M.D.; Hassan Ibrahim, M.D.; and Connie Manske, M.D., were named to the Best Doctors in America 2009-2010 database. Our expert care team treats hypertension, renal development and metabolic abnormalities and we are a most-experienced program in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. As a multidisciplinary, academic-medicine provider, we assure patients of comprehensive and innovative care.
