FAQ's Related to Nephrologist

A nephrologist is a medical professional who identifies and treats kidney disease. They treat chronic kidney disease, acute renal damage, high blood pressure caused by kidney issues, electrolyte abnormalities, and kidney failure, as well as oversee dialysis and kidney transplant therapy.

You should consult a nephrologist if you have abnormal kidney function tests, chronic edema in your legs or face, uncontrolled high blood pressure, blood or protein in your urine, recurring kidney stones, decreased urine output, or diabetes/hypertension with kidney damage. You should also see one if you are prescribed dialysis or require a kidney transplant evaluation.

Nephrologists evaluate kidney function using blood tests (creatinine, urea, electrolytes, eGFR), urine tests (urinalysis, urine protein/albumin), and imaging (ultrasound or CT) if appropriate. They may also perform or organize treatments such as kidney biopsy and vascular access testing for dialysis.

Nephrologists generally treat renal disorders with drugs, dialysis planning, and long-term maintenance. Urologists or transplant surgeons are typically responsible for surgical procedures; however, nephrologists may do interventional procedures such as kidney biopsies and dialysis catheter insertions, as well as collaborate closely with surgical teams to provide transplant care.

Nephrologists treat various kinds of kidney-related conditions, including chronic kidney disease, acute kidney injury, kidney failure, glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome, diabetic kidney disease, hypertensive kidney disease, electrolyte and acid-base disorders, and complications from dialysis and kidney transplant surgery.
