With a patient-centered approach, our nephrologists prioritize open communication, patient education, and collaborative decision-making to ensure that every patient receives individualized care tailored to their unique needs and circumstances.

Comprehensive Diagnostic Evaluations: Our Hospital offers a comprehensive range of diagnostic evaluations to assess kidney function and diagnose kidney-related conditions accurately. These evaluations may include:

  1. Laboratory Tests: Blood tests, urine tests, and kidney function tests to assess kidney function, detect abnormalities, and monitor disease progression.
  2. Imaging Studies: Ultrasound, CT scans, and MRI scans to visualize the kidneys and urinary tract, detect structural abnormalities, and identify kidney stones or tumors.
  3. Biopsy: Kidney biopsy, a minimally invasive procedure to obtain a small tissue sample from the kidney for microscopic examination, aiding in the diagnosis and management of kidney diseases such as glomerulonephritis or lupus nephritis.

Comprehensive Treatment Options: Our Hospital offers a wide range of treatment options to manage kidney-related conditions effectively and improve overall kidney health. These treatment options may include:

  1. Medications: Prescription medications, including blood pressure medications, diuretics, and medications to control blood sugar or cholesterol levels, to manage underlying conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia that can contribute to kidney disease.
  2. Dialysis: Hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis for patients with advanced kidney failure who require renal replacement therapy to remove waste products and excess fluid from the blood.
  3. Kidney Transplantation: Evaluation, preparation, and post-transplant care for patients undergoing kidney transplantation as a treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
  4. Lifestyle Modifications: Dietary counseling, weight management, smoking cessation support, and exercise programs to promote kidney health and reduce the risk of kidney disease progression.
