Sean M. Roberts, MD, specializes in nephrology at Ochsner Health. Born in New Orleans, Dr. Sean Roberts proudly attended Jesuit High School while growing up in Mid-City. He earned his medical degree from the University of Mississippi then completed his residency at Louisiana State University in internal medicine. After working as a hospitalist in downtown Atlanta for a year, he completed his fellowship training in nephrology at Emory University in Atlanta prior to returning home to Louisiana. He is board-certified in both internal medicine and nephrology.

Dr. Roberts' clinical interests include chronic kidney disease, nutrition, peritoneal dialysis, hypertension, glomerulopathies, hemodialysis (end stage renal disease services) and nephrolithiasis. His practice philosophy is to use nutrition and lifestyle changes to help disease states while trying to minimize and simplify medications when possible. Since his days at Jesuit, he has been interested in physiology and pharmacology. Nephrology is a natural combination of the two which is why he chose this as his specialty. Helping others with their health continues to bring him joy each day.
