      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.
