Washington People: Daniel Coyne, MD

Daniel Coyne, MD, specializes in the treatment of patients on dialysis. He’s a strong believer in seeing that patients’ interests are put first. That philosophy spurred him to fight against the overuse of the anti-anemia drug Epogen in dialysis patients. The drug increases the risk of heart attacks and strokes and at one time was one of the top-selling prescription medicines in the United States.
