About

Rai Care Center Mission Gorge operates a 32-station dialysis facility at 7007 Mission Gorge Road in San Diego's Grantville corridor, providing in-center hemodialysis, at-home hemodialysis training, and at-home peritoneal dialysis support under California license 080000538 and NPI 1114091840. The center is managed by Fresenius Medical Care through its RAI Care Centers of Southern California subsidiary and has held Medicare ESRD certification (provider 052779) since March 1996, making it one of the longer-operating dialysis facilities in eastern San Diego. Mission Gorge Road is the dominant commercial corridor through Grantville, and patients completing multi-hour dialysis sessions who also manage musculoskeletal conditions from prolonged seated treatment can access Pittman Chiropractic on Mission Gorge Road in Grantville for spinal and postural care. The 92120 ZIP positions the center between the Mission Gorge Road auto corridor and the Mission San Diego de Alcala landmark to the south, within the commercial strip that funnels traffic between Allied Gardens and the Santee border. The facility runs shifts starting as early as four in the morning and extending past five in the evening, accommodating patients who need to schedule dialysis around work commitments or family obligations. Kaiser Permanente lists Rai Care Center Mission Gorge as an affiliated dialysis facility, accepting EPO, HMO, Medi-Cal Managed Care, and Senior Advantage plan patients through the Kaiser referral system. Patients presenting with urgent complications between scheduled sessions, such as access clotting or fluid overload, can reach Perlman Clinic La Mesa for acute triage before returning to their next dialysis appointment. The home dialysis training program teaches patients catheter care, aseptic technique, and machine operation for the Fresenius 2008K hemodialysis system and Liberty cycler for peritoneal exchanges.
