Nephrology

Nephrology is the medical specialty focused on the study, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases and disorders related to the kidneys and urinary system. Nephrologists are trained to manage a wide range of conditions affecting kidney function, fluid and electrolyte balance, blood pressure regulation, and urinary tract health. Treatment approaches are tailored to each patient's specific diagnosis, stage of disease, overall health, and treatment goals, with a focus on preserving kidney function, managing complications, and improving quality of life. Regular monitoring and follow-up are essential for long-term management of kidney conditions.
