Please help us congratulate our Physician of the Month, Dr. Robert Zenenberg, a nephrologist at CBMC! "I have seen Dr Zenenberg’s leadership up close. Even prior to the intense pressure that Covid placed on all providers and departments, he went above and beyond to raise the academic mission of the division of nephrology. He is a champion of patient and staff safety in the dialysis unit. The patients adore him, as does all of the staff on the units in which he works. We are incredibly lucky to have him at CBMC." #LetsBeHealthyTogether #doctor #doctors #physician
