How do I contact my physician?

In case of emergency

If you encounter an emergency that is severe and needs attention immediately, either go directly to the closest emergency room, or dial 9-1-1.

After office hours

Desert Kidney Associates provides our patients with 24-hour access to our on-call physician for urgent patient matters. There is always a physician on-call who can be reached through our main number at (480) 834-9039. When our office is closed, the answering service will take your name and number and page the appropriate person. This may not be your usual physician, so you should be prepared to answer some questions for the on-call physician if necessary.
