About Us

Train the Advanced Practice Provider

 Advanced Practice Providers are needed now more than ever in nephrology practices.  The challenge is that current training programs don't prepare you to hit the ground running in a nephrology practice.  Our Ready for Rounds and Cleared for Clinic courses will provide APP's with the foundational knowledge required to confidently provide sound medical care to patients with kidney disease, supplement nephrologists and add value to the kidney care team. 

Manage the Advanced Practice Provider

Interactive Nephrology offers a monthly webinar series to include a 30 minute presentation on a topic related to incorporating Advanced Practice Providers into your nephrology practice with plenty of time for Q&A on all things APP with Leah Smith, FNP-BC, CNN-NP, FNKF and Jennifer Huneycutt CPA, CMPE.

George Hart is a general and transplant nephrologist with more than 30 years of clinical experience in private practice. He served as the President of Metrolina Nephrology Associates from 2005-2022. Working side-by-side for the last 20 years, Dr. Hart has seen the strong capabilities, enhancements to patient care, and value provided by well-trained advanced practice providers first hand. Recognizing years ago that the numbers of nephrology fellows were shrinking, Dr. Hart and Metrolina intentionally began growing the advanced practice providers team not only in number but with structured education, training, and a company culture enabling them to perform at the top of their scope of licensure.
