Washington Nephrology Associates is a partnership of physicians practicing Nephrology in the Greater Metropolitan DC and Baltimore area since 1984. The group's history began much earlier, however, with the professional association of Larry Siegel MD, James H. Knepshild MD, and William J. Cirksena MD in 1965. These nephrologists established theMetropolitan Washington Renal-Dialysis Center in Bethesda, MD, the first outpatient dialysis center in the Washington, DC area, and worked with Congress on the landmark 1972 legislation that extended Medicare benefits to patients with end-stage renal disease. In the 1980's, they joined forces with several other nephrologists in the Maryland and Virginia suburbs, and Washington Nephrology Associates was officially born. Over the years, the partnership has continued to grow, and now has strong presences in Washington, Baltimore, Bethesda, Alexandria, Takoma Park, Silver Spring, Fairfax, Woodbridge, and Annapolis.
