As we head into the final quarter of the year, ANC is excited to share a few updates that reflect our ongoing commitment to better care, more access, and a stronger connection with our community. We checked in with Dr. Doyle to hear what’s happening inside the clinic and what patients can expect in the months ahead.
New Systems, Better Patient Experience
One of the biggest changes happening right now is behind the scenes. ANC is transitioning to Epic, our new electronic medical records system. “It’s a big win for patient care,” Dr. Doyle shares, “It’s going to make communication of labs, referrals, and updates much more efficient for patients and their referring doctors.”
Research, Expanded Access & New Hours in Hastings
Patients curious about kidney-related research can now stop by ANC’s Maplewood clinic to learn more. The research team is on-site and available to answer questions or help determine your eligibility for several open clinical trials!
Additionally, ANC’s Hastings location is doubling its monthly availability, moving from two to four Thursday clinics per month. “This helps improve access for our patients in the southeast metro area and western Wisconsin,” Dr. Doyle noted. “We’re excited to expand our clinic reach and offer another convenient site for patients.”
Upcoming: Kidney Walk & Kidney Week
Last but not least, we’re gearing up for the NKF Twin Cities Kidney Walk on October 11th at Allianz Field! The first 20 people to join our ANC Kidney Walk team will win one of our popular custom tees designed for 2025! Use the QR code to sign up. We hope you’ll join us for a day of community fun and spirit in support of the NKF Twin Cities!
Stay tuned for more as we wrap up the year, and thank you for following along on our journey to provide unparalleled kidney care!
