Today's conversation with DR. SMRITA DORAIRAJAN, nephrology specialist at Truman Veterans' Hospital, is all about the correlation between chronic kidney disease and mental health: "sometimes there's poor understanding of the disease and what it holds, so there's a lot of anxiety with this diagnosis."
