Summit Kidney and Hypertension Care is based in Greenfield, the seat of Hancock County, at 10 West Boyd Avenue, Unit C, just off North State Street. For Greenfield residents that means specialist kidney care without the drive into Indianapolis, without downtown parking garages, and without an hour of interstate traffic on either side of a twenty minute appointment.
That was the reason Dr. Baig set up here rather than in a hospital system on the other side of Marion County. Kidney care is not a single visit. It is bloodwork, adjustments, and follow-up over years, and how easy it is to get to the office turns out to matter a great deal in whether people keep coming.
What do Greenfield patients come to us for?
Referrals most often arrive from primary care physicians in town after a routine blood panel shows a reduced eGFR, protein in the urine, or a creatinine level that has been creeping upward. Others come because blood pressure has stopped responding to the usual medications, or because a second kidney stone has arrived and nobody has worked out why the first one formed.
Whatever brings you in, the first visit is a full review rather than a quick consultation: your lab history over time, your medications, your family history, and a plan you can actually follow.
What we treat
The full range of nephrology and hypertension care is available to Greenfield patients at the Greenfield office.
- Chronic Kidney DiseaseMost people learn they have chronic kidney disease from a routine blood test, not because they feel unwell. That early window is also when treatment does the most good.
- Dialysis CareThe best dialysis experience starts months before the first treatment, with an unhurried conversation about which approach fits your life.
- HypertensionWhen blood pressure will not come down on three medications, the answer is usually a cause that has not been found yet.
- Kidney StonesPassing one stone is misfortune. Passing a second is usually preventable, and the workup that prevents it is straightforward.
- Diabetic Kidney DiseaseThe first sign of kidney trouble in diabetes shows up in the urine years before creatinine moves, which is exactly why annual screening is worth insisting on.
- Anemia ManagementFatigue that patients put down to age or stress is often anemia, and it is one of the more treatable parts of kidney disease.
