At Balboa Nephrology, we believe the best care comes from a place of deep understanding. That's why we recently held our annual education day, "A Hero's Journey". This special event gives our staff a glimpse into the lives of those we serve, with patients sharing their personal stories. We also brought our valued partners together to explain how they help patients.

It was an incredible day of connection and reinforced empathy, leaving our team inspired and better equipped to provide truly compassionate care.

Today, we celebrate Juneteenth - Freedom Day, marking the end of slavery on June 19, 1865 in the U.S. This day honors African American culture, resilience, and contributions, reminding us of the ongoing fight for racial justice and health equity.

African Americans face a higher risk of kidney disease; for example, they are nearly four times more likely to develop kidney failure than White Americans. At Balboa Nephrology, we are committed to addressing these disparities through education, prevention, and equitable access to care.

Join us in reflecting on this pivotal moment in history and supporting the continued pursuit of health equity for all. Learn more by exploring the resources in our recent blog post at BalboaCare.com.
