I've been under the care of Dr. Albrecht for some years now. I've never known a physician so caring…read moreand so thorough in his treatment and manner. There's a calm gentleness about him I've never experienced with any other physician. His staff adores him and I can see why. I feel the same way about him--and about them, too. I had chronically high--very high--blood pressure which he finally helped bring under control. He goes beyond simply treating kidney issues by treating other problems which can affect the kidneys. Dr. Albrecht also delivers solid advice for how to prevent some problems from getting worse, again in a calm, gentle manner which is never 'preachy' like it can be with other medical professionals. I highly recommend Dr. Albrecht and his staff to anyone in need of a great nephrologist. I don't mind sharing. Truly, I don't.

I do recomend the Dr. Albrecht. I rate my experience with the Dr. Albrecht is rated 5 stars. I put…read more3 stars because of the front staff. I feel that when we call, we are not that important. The tone of the person says that she is upset with us calling. I just asked about my husband's appointment time and day. It's like we interrupted something important that she needed to do. When we talk to her in about making a payment, she is not very friendly. I feel like she is more important and shouldn't have to explain anything to us. I like paying my co pays after the appointment. That way it's paid. The last time I was told there was no co pay. We thought that his deductible was meet for the year. It was someone else who said this not the main person. It would have been nice to have the main person acknowledge that she saw us by her head or hand movements. Both people were on the phone when we came in. We had to go sit down as my husband is in a walker and could not stand too long. The other person helped us when we acknowledged who we were. The other person was a substitute for the regular person, who takes us back to the room. Oh well, at least we love to come and see the doctor. I miss the other staff who showed they enjoyed their job.

He is, unfortunately, booked months in advance, and is usually impossible to reach, so having him as your nephrologist is like having no nephrologist at all.

When we went in for our monthly visits he was completely up-to-date with my husband's lab work, stats, etc. from the Northwest Kidney Center. The Seattle traffic made my husband so nervous that, with heavy hearts, we had to ask him for a referral to someone in Redmond/Kirkland area. Dr. Windrow referred us to a wonderful nephrologist in Kirkland. I urge anyone who needs a nephrologist to consider him...you will put yourself in the hands of a knowledgable doctor who cares.
