Dr. Kimball is very personable and he is an excellent Doctor. I highly recommend him as a specialist in internal medicine and as a nephrologist. He’s the best!

I've been a patient if Dr Kimble's for 10 yrs. This year I had to go on dialysis. He made it an easy transition. I do home PD dialysis and feel so much better. He kept me well educated on what was happening as well as what was to come. I feel extremely confident that I'm in the best hands possible.

I have been seeing Dr. Kimball for about 5 years now. I have recently moved to Oklahoma and I am still going back to see him for my appointments. He is by far one of the best doctors that I have ever had in my life. He is patient, he listens and he is very knowledgeable.

I have been a nurse for 13 years and have worked with all kinds of doctors. I never knew I would need a nephrologist. When I did, I was referred to Dr. Shane Kimball. I was so impressed I have referred everyone I can to him. There was only a 5 minute wait in his office and he spent more time with me than almost any doctor I have been to. He is so easy to talk to and is very very knowledgeable. He spends as much time as he needs and is not rushed. I am so happy to have found him as a doctor. I even take my friends with me and they cannot believe it either. His office staff is also very nice and caring.

Very professional and courteousVery caring and very good at explaing and answering questionsHe has been very good to us-my husband has been in hospital for 3 mos and he has taken excellent care f him. We had a bad experience at another hospital and insisted on going back to Baptist Hospital so he could be under Dr. Kimball's care again.

With Dr Kimball I know he is more than my doctor, he is my advocate. I can trust him and I know he cares about my well being. When things don't move fast enough with other specialists he gets the ball rolling. His diagnosis was spot on and I feel he has saved my life.
