About Me

Many physicians pursue their careers because of the incredible stories they hear from a physician relative. Bishan Chakravarty, MD, claims one such story. Growing up in India, he was blessed with a grandfather who faithfully served his patients.

Today, you can trust Dr. Chakravarty for expert and compassionate care in nephrology, the branch of medicine dedicated to kidney health. He’s proud to work at Avera Medical Group Nephrology in Sioux Falls, SD, where patients are put first by the multidisciplinary team and health system.

“I enjoy building relationships with my patients and learning how I can best meet their needs and health wishes,” said Dr. Chakravarty.
