A skilled nephrologist, Dr. Azar is affiliated with Kidney Consultants of Michigan, seeing patients in Roseville, Grosse Pointe, Troy, Sterling Heights, and St. Clair Shores, Michigan.

The team of professionals at Kidney Consultants of Michigan believe in the importance of maintaining a healthy body and a healthy mind.

Back in the early days of his academic career, Dr. Azar earned his medical degree at the Damascus University School of Medicine in Syria in 2006. Wanting to further his education, he relocated to the United States and completed his residency in internal medicine at the Hurley Medical Center in 2012. Finally, he completed his fellowship in nephrology at the Detroit Medical Center in 2014.

Subsequent to his education, the doctor attained board certification in nephrology and internal medicine through 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.

Nephrology is a specialty of medicine and pediatrics that concerns itself with the kidneys. It is the study of normal kidney function and kidney disease, the preservation of kidney health, and the treatment of kidney disease, from diet and medication to renal replacement therapy. Nephrologists have advanced training in treating kidney disease. They diagnose and treat kidney failure, as well as help patients by prescribing medications, offering special diet advice, and coordinating dialysis care or kidney transplantation when it becomes necessary.

On a more personal note, Dr. Azar is fluent in both English and Arabic.
