I had my first visit this week with this office. This check-in staff was friendly and efficient. Dr. Mutinga was a pleasure to meet. We developed a treatment plan and she explained all of my test results in detail. She also called me later to update me on some additional test results. I have never received a call directly from a doctor to discuss test results! I also sent her a message with questions I forgot to ask at my visit. She replied in under 12 hours! This was another first for me since other offices normally reply in 2 - 3 days and sometimes never reply! Needless to say I am very impressed with Columbia Nephrology Assoc. and especially with Dr. Mutinga.

I can’t say enough great things about them- They have been extremely accommodating to me for the past 8 years, everything from making my appointments in Lugoff which is close to our home to setting up my dialysis in Camden which is vey close to us- My very special props to Dr Mac and my direct line to Maggie who always went the extra mile for any questions or concerns- you guys are the best - Thank You👍
