What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Addendum 2026: I still think this is the most amazing podcast. Listened to every single episode. I would like to suggest: GDNT- goal directed nephrology therapy! Maybe this will gain the same traction as GDMT with cardiology! Our patients most definitely deserve all therapies for proteinuric kidney disease! Simply THE BEST! As a full time community nephrologist and mom to two active boys, I’ve always felt the lack of a place to go to get up to date information on all things kidney! I listen to freely filtered every morning now while I walk. This has been life changing for me. Thank you, smart nephrons!

I’m a nephrologist in private practice. I have very little free time but do the best I can like most doctors to keep up with journal articles as they come out. This podcast brings to the forefront groundbreaking nephrology clinical research and presents that information in a manner that is easily accessible especially on a commute to work. The regular hosts are entertaining and brilliant. The information is enlightening. The experts chosen as guests are absolutely top shelf. I cannot recommend this enough to colleagues in the field and to general practitioners. I am grateful this podcast exists.

As a nephrology fellow, I listen to this podcast every day while I’m driving to work and back. I learn something new every day!

For a solo private practitioner who hardly gets time to review, this is an awesome educational podcast. I listen to it while driving to different hospitals and dialysis units. Definitely an A team. Keep it coming.Heart felt thank you to all of you!
