Rahul Maheshwari, MD

As an internist and nephrologist at NYU Langone Nephrology Associates, I am dedicated to providing care that emphasizes the importance of strong, trusting relationships. My approach ensures that patients feel heard, understood, and actively involved in their care decisions. I am committed to using the latest medical advances and proven techniques to deliver comprehensive care, continually incorporating innovative teaching and digital education methods to bridge the gap between evolving science and everyday clinical care.

I specialize in the nuanced care of kidney health, managing patients with a range of conditions, from common disorders to complex issues such as glomerular diseases and onconephrology, which is the intersection of cancer and kidney disease. My expertise allows me to address the unique challenges faced by patients with kidney-related conditions, ensuring they receive tailored and effective treatment plans.

With years of experience in the field, I have honed my skills through rigorous training. My journey began at the University of Missouri–Kansas City, where I completed a combined bachelor of arts/doctor of medicine program. I further developed my expertise during my internal medicine residency and subsequent fellowships at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. These experiences have equipped me with a deep understanding of nephrology and a commitment to advancing patient care.

My passion for medicine extends beyond clinical practice. I am actively involved in education and research, having earned a master’s degree in health professions education and received recognition for my digital teaching initiatives. These endeavors underscore my dedication to advancing the field of nephrology and supporting my colleagues. I believe that every interaction is an opportunity to learn, improve, and make a positive impact on the lives of my patients.
