EastowneProviders at the UNC Hypertension Clinic use a multidisciplinary approach to evaluate and manage high blood pressure, with skilled nurses, pharmacists, and specialists in heart disease (cardiologists) and kidney disease (nephrologists) working together to provide you with the correct diagnosis and develop an individualized treatment plan. We place a heavy emphasis on modifying lifestyle factors that contribute to high blood pressure. We also embrace patient engagement and self-blood pressure monitoring. In collaboration with our pharmacists, we strive to find medications that are effective, affordable, and well-tolerated. Finally, we participate in clinical trials that offer advanced, innovative treatment techniques.

The clinic has been designated as a Comprehensive Hypertension Center by the American Heart Association.
