What is Nephrology?
Nephrology is the medical specialty dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the kidneys—the vital organs responsible for filtering waste, balancing fluids and electrolytes, producing hormones, and regulating blood pressure.
"Nephrology is where precision meets compassion—protecting the body's silent lifelines, one kidney at a time."
Types Of Nephrology
Various subspecialties or focus areas within the field of nephrology, which is the branch of medicine that deals with the kidneys.
Clinical Nephrology
Dialysis Nephrology
Transplant Nephrology
Pediatric Nephrology
Interventional Nephrology

Are You at Risk?
Understand the key factors that may increase your risk of kidney disease — and take proactive steps today.
Diabetes
High blood sugar levels over time damage the tiny blood vessels in your kidneys — the leading cause of CKD worldwide.
Recurrent UTIs
Repeated urinary tract infections can scar kidney tissue, especially if left untreated or frequent.
Long-Term Painkiller Use
Chronic use of NSAIDs (like ibuprofen) can reduce kidney blood flow and lead to nephritis or kidney damage.
High Blood Pressure
Uncontrolled hypertension puts excess strain on kidneys, gradually reducing their ability to filter waste.
Smoking & Alcohol
These lifestyle habits increase inflammation, raise blood pressure, and reduce kidney efficiency over time.
Genetic Conditions
Diseases like Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) run in families and require early screening and management.

Common tests include blood tests like serum creatinine and GFR, urine tests for protein or blood, and imaging like ultrasound to check kidney size and structure.

CKD cannot be fully reversed, but early diagnosis and proper treatment can slow its progression and help manage symptoms effectively.

Yes, we provide complete support for visa processing, appointment scheduling, and travel planning to make your journey smooth and stress-free.
What treatments do you offer for kidney disease?
We offer medical management of CKD, dialysis planning, kidney transplant evaluations, stone management, and care for complications like electrolyte imbalance and hypertension.
Is dialysis the only option for kidney failure?
Dialysis is one option, but kidney transplant and conservative care may also be considered based on the patient’s overall health, age, and condition.
Are the treatment costs transparent and affordable?
Absolutely. We provide clear, upfront pricing for all procedures and consultations so you can plan with confidence—no hidden charges.
