About Me
Dr. Weir specializes in a branch of medicine that treats acute and chronic kidney disease and associated high blood pressure. Eager to advance the field of nephrology, he is very active in research – from conducting his own clinical studies, writing books and manuscripts, and reviewing manuscripts for more than 30 major medical journals.
His primary research interests include the use of antihypertensive therapy for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy, hypertensive renal injury in African Americans and preventing allograft nephropathy in transplant recipients.
Dr. Weir has four active National Institutes of Health (NIH)-supported grants from NIDDK. In addition, he is a member of numerous associations, including the American Society of Nephrology, the National Kidney Foundation, the American Heart Association and the American Society of Transplantation.
This dedication to his patients and profession has earned Dr. Weir a consistent spot on Baltimore's Top Doctor's list in nephrology.
