About me

Dr. Chopra is trained and certified in both general and transplant nephrology. He began his career as clinical faculty at the University of Michigan, where he focused on taking care of kidney transplant patients, while working towards a master of science in clinical research/ biostatistics and participating in administrative projects for the Transplant Center. He then joined a private practice in Oregon to expand his clinical practice to include community- based general nephrology. Dr. Chopra returned to academics at OHSU and will practice both general and transplant nephrology. His interests include providing compassionate care, evaluating clinical outcomes, and teaching.

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
