Nephrology Services

Nephrology is the medical specialty focused on the diagnosis and treatment of kidney-related conditions. Nephrology services provide expert care for patients with acute and chronic kidney diseases, electrolyte and fluid imbalances, high blood pressure related to kidney function, and kidney failure. These services are essential for preserving kidney health, managing complex conditions, and supporting patients requiring dialysis or kidney transplantation.

Comprehensive Kidney Care:
Nephrology services begin with a detailed evaluation of kidney function using blood tests, urine analysis, imaging studies, and sometimes kidney biopsies. Early diagnosis of kidney problems, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD), can help slow progression and prevent complications.

Common Conditions Managed Include:

• Chronic kidney disease (CKD)

• Acute kidney injury (AKI)

• Glomerulonephritis

• Polycystic kidney disease

• Hypertension related to kidney disease

• Electrolyte and acid-base imbalances

• Kidney stones

• End-stage kidney disease (ESKD)
