About

Personal Statement

I'm originally from Honduras, and I come from a family of physicians. My dad is a nephrologist, my uncle is a nephrologist, so I think I have some of that in my blood. Since I was little I always knew that I wanted to be a physician, and as I studied internal medicine I knew that nephrology was what I wanted to do. I fell in love with it.I love working in the Transplant Center here at UK HealthCare. We have a great team that’s multidisciplinary, and we're all really working to provide the best care for each patient. We want the best for our patients, and I think we're all doing this for them. It's very rewarding to see patients do well after a kidney transplant. They are able to come off dialysis, and they get a second chance in life.

    Dr. Castellanos is an excellent doctor and has treated my family for years as we have polycystic kidneys. She is a tremendous asset to UK and I am very pleased with the care I receive from her and her staff.

    Unrelsolved cough and choking symptoms for 1 year plus... Not sure an assessment by a pulmology nurse practitioner would offer any benefit as scheduled which was supposed to be a pulmologist second opinion to Baptist Pulmonology. Very frustrating to continue to seek diagnosis with several avenues that have not offered any findings of significance like EGD and Barium Swallow studies. Parathyroid hormone levels have been rising for a year and correlates with onset of coughing and choking. Not sure navagating a UK parking garage to see a pulmonary nurse practitioner will assist with definitive diagnosis.
