Frequently Asked Questions

Nephrology is a medical specialty focused on the study, diagnosis, and treatment of kidney diseases. Its primary goal is to maintain kidney health and prevent or treat diseases that affect this vital organ.

You should see a nephrologist if you experience symptoms such as lower back pain, changes in the amount or color of your urine, high blood pressure, swelling in your limbs, or if you have a family history of kidney disease.

Your doctor may order tests such as blood and urine tests, ultrasounds, or imaging studies like CT scans or MRIs. These tests help assess kidney function, identify potential conditions, and determine the best course of treatment.

Some of the most common conditions treated by a nephrologist include chronic kidney disease, acute kidney failure, high blood pressure, kidney stones, recurrent urinary tract infections, and autoimmune diseases that affect the kidneys, such as glomerulonephritis.

Treatment for kidney disease can vary depending on the specific condition. It may include dietary and lifestyle changes, medications to control blood pressure or treat infections, dialysis in cases of advanced kidney failure, and, in some cases, a kidney transplant. The nephrologist will determine the best treatment approach
