Compare Dialysis Facilities

In making a decision about your dialysis care, we want you to compare. We want you to make an educated decision about which dialysis provider in whom you choose to instill your trust in your healthcare. We encourage you to go to a number of different providers, perhaps even different facilities with the same company name, meet their staff, discuss their care philosophies, and get a sense of how they make you feel. Not all dialysis providers are equal. When it comes to home dialysis providers, Home Dialysis Therapies of San Diego stands out above the rest given the experienced home-only dialysis clinical staff Home Dialysis Therapies of San Diego maintains.
