Arizona Kidney Disease & Hypertension Centers (AKDHC) is one of the nation's largest groups of physicians specializing in the care of patients with renal disease including chronic kidney disease, vascular access management, dialysis, transplantation, and clinical research. Since 1976, AKDHC has enjoyed the trust and respect of the community and has grown to provide services throughout Arizona. Its goal is to provide the most advanced treatments and state-of-the-art technologies with compassion and care.

Back in the early days of his academic career, Dr. Shakil graduated with his medical degree from the Ross University School of Medicine in Dominica in 2009. He then went on to perform his internship, residency in Internal medicine (2009-2012), and fellowship in Nephrology (2012-2014)  at the University of Kansas Medical Center. 

Continuously enhancing the well-being of patients, the doctor is board-certified in internal medicine and nephrology by the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM). The ABIM is a physician-led, non-profit, independent evaluation organization driven by doctors who want to achieve higher standards for better care in a rapidly changing world.
