NEPHROLOGY · SHERWOOD & PORTLAND METRO AREA
Kidney Care & Metabolic Health, Reimagined
Dr. Marilia Campos opened Optima Kidney Care to practice medicine differently.
She believes meaningful care requires time, approachability, and clear communication — not rushed visits or unanswered questions.
Dr. Campos intentionally spends more time with each patient, making herself available to explain diagnoses, review options, and ensure patients truly understand their health.
Her approach emphasizes prevention and early risk reduction, while also providing thoughtful, evidence-based treatment when needed.
When appropriate, she offers physician-led GLP-1 weight management to help patients lose weight safely, improve metabolic health, and reduce long-term kidney and cardiovascular risk.
She is fluent in English and Spanish.
