You should consult a nephrologist if you have persistent high blood pressure, abnormal kidney function tests, protein or blood in the urine, swelling in the legs or face, recurrent kidney infections, or chronic kidney disease.

A nephrologist specialises in the medical management of kidney diseases and kidney function, while a urologist focuses on surgical conditions affecting the urinary tract, kidneys, bladder, ureters, and male reproductive organs.

Nephrologists provide treatments such as medication management, blood pressure control, dialysis planning and supervision, kidney transplant care, electrolyte correction, and management of chronic kidney disease and related complications.
