Follow-up visit after my renal artery stenosis procedure. Instead of rushing, Dr. Koley spent 40 minutes teaching me how to read my own blood pressure patterns and adjust diet accordingly.

Post-kidney stone surgery follow-up could have been quick, but Dr. Koley analyzed my 24-hour urine collection like a detective. Discovered my 'healthy' green smoothie habit was overloading oxalates.

Teenage patient with lupus nephritis—Dr. Koley recognized her depression about steroid weight gain and brought in a dermatologist for acne treatment, a nutritionist for meal plans.
