Dr. Eileen Tsai
Overview
I became a physician to improve the health and well-being of children. I was drawn to the field of pediatric kidney transplantation as it combined my love for immunology and central goal of enhancing patient outcomes. My ultimate goal is to provide individually tailored immune therapy and monitoring to enhance the lives of transplanted children.

1 Clinical Trials
Duke Children's Health Center Kidney Transplant Clinic
I am a pediatric nephrologist and work with children with kidney disease. Some of the conditions that we see include congenital malformations of the kidney and the bladder, nephrotic syndrome, glomerulonephritis (inflammation of the kidney filters), and children who are on dialysis or who received kidney transplantation because of kidney failure. I listen carefully to parents when they bring their children to the clinic because they know their children better than any other person, and they are the best advocates for their child. I collaborate a lot with the other doctors in the clinic. Rest assured, when you visit our clinic and I am not around, the doctor who is seeing you knows everything about your child. This is a group practice with a very caring multidisciplinary team. Dr. Gbadegesin is rated as an Elite provider by MediFind in the treatment of Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis.
