I'm a big fan of Lori Hartwell. For years I have been aware of her presence in the Southern California renal community by her involvement in a number of activities. But when I finally heard her speak at a regional nephrology symposium, I was awestruck - both by her message and by the way she communicated that message. I have never been so completely transferred inside the mind of a patient. People caring for kidney patients owe it to themselves to listen to a Lori Hartwell presentation."
