Creating Community

CARE partners with independent clinics across the country and connect them with patients seeking new opportunities to manage their health. Additionally, our experienced investigators train physicians who are new to clinical research to ensure they provide the highest quality care to patients, as well as the highest quality data for their studies.

We are experts in setting up and conducting clinical trials and systems designed to create quality research. We leverage this expertise to support the independent research sites we partner with. CARE oversees and supervises all aspects of the clinical research trials and provides quality assurance, assistance with recruitment, and business development.

With an emphasis on Cardiovascular and Renal diseases, CARE provides high quality clinical research that makes a meaningful difference in the health of our patients and communities and advances the science and medical knowledge of our industry.
