Nephrology clinic

The nephrology clinic specializes in treating kidney diseases, including:

  • Kidney cysts
  • Congenital urinary tract issues
  • Nephrotic syndrome (damage to blood filters)
  • Chronic kidney infections
  • Kidney damage from diabetes or immune system diseases

When kidneys fail, treatments like dialysis are used to remove waste from the blood. There are two types:

  1. Peritoneal dialysis: Fluid in the abdomen absorbs waste, then is drained out.
  2. Hemodialysis: Blood is filtered through a machine.

Kidney transplantation is the most effective and preferred option for replacing kidney function.
