Nephrology:
Treatment of kidney disease

The kidneys are very important to your health because they are responsible for removing waste and fluid from your body. They also have many other functions, like balancing your body's fluids, making hormones that regulate blood pressure, and making vitamin D to keep your bones strong.

Some of the conditions we help with are:

  • Kidney problems
  • Kidney stones
  • High Blood Pressure (Hypertension)
  • Electrolyte Imbalance  
  • Blood in Urine
  • Kidney cysts
  • Protein in the urine
