Kidney Profile
This Profile combines two common tests-estimated glomerular filtration rate and urine albumin-creatinine ratio to support early detection of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). This profile supports the National Kidney Foundation initiative to drive adoption of the profile to facilitate appropriate ordering of the elements of the profile to address early detection of CKD. A NHANES (CDC) study showed that only 8% of people with an eGFR 30 mg/g, only 28% were aware they had CKD. The guidelines are part of the laboratory engagement plan for CKD Intercept, sponsored by the National Kidney Foundation.

Hi! I’m Natalie, a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and founder of Unmask Psychiatry. I specialize in working with high-masking adolescents and adults navigating ADHD, autism, chronic illness, and overlapping mental health patterns. I have a special interest in the complex intersection of neurodivergence, immune and inflammatory conditions, connective tissue disorders, and dysautonomia, including autism, ADHD, MCAS, EDS/hypermobility, POTS, and autoimmunity. At Unmask Psychiatry, my approach is slow, validating, and thorough. I provide neurodivergent evaluations, comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and holistic care that recognizes the connection between mental health, physical health, and identity.
