Overview

As a kidney specialist, I see individuals with various degrees of kidney disease, from early-stage chronic kidney disease to patients on dialysis. The kidney is a stoic organ; it suffers in silence. Because the majority of kidney diseases are not painful, many people with kidney disease are not aware of their condition. Early detection of kidney disease could facilitate preventative care. Therefore, I am passionate about raising awareness about kidney disease as well as introducing remedies that could slow the progression of kidney disease to dialysis. When I am not seeing patients or doing research, I enjoy spending time with my family and biking.

Dr. Olabisi is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Nephrotic Syndrome. His top areas of expertise are Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis, Glomerulonephritis, Chronic Kidney Disease, and Nephrotic Syndrome.
