June 12, 1998

To the Participants and Administrator
of the Total Renal Care, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan


In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of the Total Renal Care, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan at December 31, 1997 and
1996, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then
ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The additional information included in
the schedule of assets held for investment purposes and the schedule of
reportable transactions is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and
is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is additional
information required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The
Fund Information in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the
statements of changes in net assets available for benefits is presented for
purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available
for benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits of each fund. The
schedule of assets held for investment purposes, the schedule of reportable
transactions and the Fund Information have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

The schedule of assets held for investment purposes and the schedule of
reportable transactions that accompany the Plan's financial statements do not
disclose the historical cost of certain plan assets. Disclosure of this
information is required by the Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974.

   Participants may contribute an amount equal to not less than 1 percent nor
   more than 15 percent of their compensation for the contribution period.  The
   Company may make a discretionary contribution in an amount to be determined
   by a resolution of the Company's Board of Directors.

   Participant Accounts

   Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution
   and allocation of the Company's contribution and Plan earnings.  Earnings are
   allocated by fund based on the ratio of a participant's account invested in a
   particular fund to all participants' investments in that fund.  The benefit
   to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from
   the participant's account.

   Vesting

   Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions plus
   actual earnings thereon.  The balance of vesting in the participants'
   accounts is based on years of service.  A participant becomes 20 percent
   vested after one year of service, 40 percent vested after two years of
   service, 60 percent vested after three years of service, 80 percent vested
   after four years of service and 100 percent vested after five years of
   service.  However, if an active participant dies prior to attaining the
   normal retirement age, the participant's account becomes 100 percent vested.

    Payment of Benefits

    On termination of service, a participant may elect to receive either a lump-

    the applicable provisions of the Plan agreement.

    appropriate investment option at December 31, 1996 are invested in the CIGNA
    Charter Guaranteed Short-Term Account, which is recorded at fair value, and

2.  Summary of Accounting Policies

    Method of Accounting

    The Plan's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of
    accounting, and reflect management's estimates and assumptions, such as
    those regarding fair value, that affect the recorded amounts. Significant
    estimates used are discussed throughout the notes to financial statements.

    Investments

    Investments in pooled separate accounts (CIGNA Fidelity Advisor Balanced
    Fund, CIGNA American Century - Twentieth Century Ultra Fund and CIGNA
    Warburg Pincus Advisor International Equity Fund) are recorded at fair
    value, as determined by the unit value as reported by the Connecticut
    General Life Insurance Company ("CG Life"). The investment in the CIGNA
    Charter Guaranteed Long-Term Account is non-fully benefit responsive and is
    recorded at fair value. Participant notes receivable are valued at cost
    which approximates fair value. The Company stock is valued at its quoted
    market price.

    Contributions

    Employee contributions are recorded in the period during which the Company
    makes payroll deductions from the participants' earnings. Company
    contributions are recorded annually.

    Benefits

    Benefit claims are recorded as expenses when they have been approved for
    payment and paid by the Plan.

3.  Deposit With Insurance Company

    The Plan participates in a contract with CG Life via an investment in the
    CIGNA Charter Guaranteed Long-Term Account. CG Life commingles the assets of
    this investment with other assets. For the Plan's investment in the CIGNA
    Charter Guaranteed Long-Term Account, the Plan is credited with interest at
    the rate specified in the contract which was 6.05% for the years ended
    December 31, 1997 and 1996, net of asset charges. CG Life prospectively
    guaranteed the interest rates credited for the CIGNA Charter Guaranteed
    Long-Term Account for six months. As discussed in Note 2, the Charter
    Guaranteed Long-Term Account is included in the financial statements at fair
    value which, principally because of the periodic rate reset process,
    approximates contract value.

5.  Participant Notes Receivable

    Under the terms of the Plan, participants may borrow from their accounts up
    to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. Loan
    transactions are treated as a transfer to/from the investment fund from/to
    Participant Notes Receivable. A loan is secured by the balance in the
    participant's account and bears interest at a rate commensurate with market
    rates for similar loans, as defined (10.00% and 10.00% to 11.00% for the
    years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively).

6.  Plan Termination

    Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right
    under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate
    the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan
    termination, participants will become 100 percent vested in their accounts.

7.  Income Taxes

    The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a
    letter dated November 25, 1996, that the Plan and related trust are designed
    in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC").
    The Plan's administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is currently
    being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.
    Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan's
    financial statements.

8.  Reconciliation of Plan Financial Statements to the Form 5500

    Certain balances included on lines 31 and 32 of the Annual Return/Report of
    Employee Benefit Plan (the "Form 5500") have been reclassified for purposes
    of presentation in these financial statements to provide additional
    disclosure.

9.  Transfer from Affiliated Plan and Plan Mergers

    Certain assets were transferred to the Plan from Valley Dialysis Associates,
    formerly part of Valley Internal Medicine and from the NME Retirement
    Savings Plan during 1996.

10. Forfeitures

    The net change in forfeiture reserve represents the net change in the
    available forfeiture reserve balance from the prior year plus the current
    year forfeitures generated. Forfeitures result from nonvested benefit
    payments remaining in the Plan for all terminated employees. Upon reaching
    the break-in-service, as defined in the Plan agreement, forfeitures
    generated are added to the forfeiture reserve balance. The forfeiture
    reserve of $15,271 and $13,922 at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively,
    is included in the CIGNA Charter Guaranteed Long-Term Account and is
    available to offset contributions or to pay Plan expenses, which would be
    otherwise payable by the Company, in accordance with the Plan agreement.
