Meet Dr. Barats
Dr. Mark Barats is an internal medicine physician specializing in nephrology – the care of kidney disease – based in West Hollywood and serving the greater Los Angeles area, with more than 30 years in clinical practice. He earned his medical degree from the Latvian Medical Academy, completed an internal medicine residency, and trained in nephrology through a fellowship at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. His work centers on early intervention, careful monitoring, and individualized care plans for patients with kidney disease and related chronic conditions.

Services
Care Delivered Where You Are
In your home
Kidney disease and the conditions that come with it – diabetes, high blood pressure, heart strain – are managed over years, not single visits. A home visit lets Dr. Barats review medications, check how a patient is really doing day to day, and adjust a long-term plan without the burden of repeated trips to an office. For older patients and those managing several chronic conditions at once, that continuity at home is often what keeps things stable.
Telehealth
Much of nephrology and chronic-disease care is steady follow-up: reviewing lab results, fine-tuning medications, watching trends over time. Over secure video, Dr. Barats can do this with patients across Los Angeles between in-person visits – and because he speaks both English and Russian, he can have those detailed conversations directly, without anything lost in translation.
