  • Hi. I'm Dr. Joshua Schwimmer,
    a nephrologist and internal medicine physician in New York City.
  • Kidney Notes was the first active nephrology blog. (Trivia: Kidney Notes is so old that the National Library of Medicine still uses it as an example of how to formally cite blogs.)
  • Professionally, you can find me at Kidney.nyc.
