Why Dialysis Care Matters in Your Community
Dialysis is a commitment—typically three sessions per week, three to four hours each. That adds up to more than 400 hours per year in a dialysis chair. When your center is across town, fighting traffic on I-95 or the Palmetto, those hours multiply. You spend more time getting to care than receiving it.
That's why having a quality dialysis center right here in Miami Gardens matters. You can get treatment close to home, close to work, close to the people who support you. Your care team knows your neighborhood, understands your community, and sees the same faces at the grocery store and the church pews.
Miami Gardens incorporated in 2003 from neighborhoods like Carol City, Bunche Park, and Norland—communities that had been building lives for generations. We're proud to serve a city that represents the best of South Florida: diverse, resilient, and proud of where it comes from.
Who We Serve & What to Expect
We provide dialysis care for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 4-5, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), acute kidney injury (AKI), and those awaiting or recovering from kidney transplant. Whether you're newly diagnosed or transferring from another center, here's your journey with us:
- Easy Intake — We handle insurance verification, paperwork, and scheduling. Most major insurance accepted including Medicare and Medicaid. Our multilingual staff will walk you through everything.
- Personalized Care Planning — Your nephrologist and our care team develop a treatment plan based on your kidney function, overall health, work schedule, and personal preferences.
- Access Preparation — If you need vascular access, we coordinate with surgeons to ensure your fistula, graft, or catheter is functioning optimally before you start.
- Comfortable Treatment — Relax in our modern facility while our experienced team provides safe, effective dialysis care. Personal TVs and free WiFi help the time pass.
- Ongoing Monitoring — Regular treatment sessions, monthly lab work, nutritional counseling, and continuous care team support keep you on track.
- Your Life, Your Community — Our goal is to help you feel your best so you can keep doing what matters—working, worshiping, cheering for the Dolphins, and spending time with family.
Part of the Miami Gardens Community
Miami Gardens is more than a city—it's a statement. When it incorporated in 2003, it became Florida's largest city with a majority African American population. It's home to Florida Memorial University, an HBCU with deep roots in the community. It's where Hard Rock Stadium hosts the biggest events in sports and entertainment. And it's where families from across the Caribbean, Latin America, and the American South have built lives together.
At ARC Dialysis, we're proud to serve this community. As a minority-owned company ourselves, we understand what it means to build something from the ground up through hard work and perseverance. Our founder started on a cleanup crew and built Florida's largest kidney care network—and that spirit of service and determination drives everything we do.
We're not just providing dialysis. We're providing care that respects your culture, your language, your time, and your dignity. We're here because Miami Gardens deserves a dialysis center that treats every patient like family.
