                  What are Nephrology Doctors?

                  A nephrologist is a physician who is specially trained to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the kidneys, or renal system.

                  The kidneys are responsible for cleaning the blood and keeping them chemically balanced. A patient may be suffering from decreased kidney function, or kidney failure if the following symptoms are present:

                  • Blood or protein present in urine
                  • High blood pressure (hypertension)
                  • Kidney stones
                  • Electrolyte disorder
                  • Fluid retention

                  A nephrologist will determine through urine analysis, blood test, X-ray, sonogram, or kidney biopsy how well the kidneys are functioning and will then prescribe a special diet and exercise program, medication or dialysis - a process by which a machine filters the blood when the kidney is no longer capable of doing so.

                  The area of Springfield, IL has a population of approximately 141,894 people. There are 14 nephrologists near Springfield, which gives it a ratio of 1 nephrologist per 10,135 residents or a ratio of 1 nephrologist per 4,415 households. There are 61,813 households in Springfield.
