Reviews

This is a comprehensive overview of hemodialysis access and the subtleties involved in the care of patients with end- stage renal disease (ESRD). ... The book is designed for surgeons, interventionalists, nephrologists, and other providers who care for patients with end- stage renal disease. ... As an educator in the field of nephrology, I plan to use this as a tool for trainees and patient care. The images are particularly brilliant and make this a unique reference. (Jon Webb, Doody's Book Reviews, November, 2017)
