FAQ's

Some common nephrological issues include kidney stones, kidney failure, kidney infections, polycystic kidney disease, lupus, proteinuria, and hematuria, among others.

Hypertension and diabetes are the leading causes of kidney disease, impacting all body organs. If not managed properly, they can result in kidney failure, necessitating dialysis. Additionally, conditions such as lupus, HIV infection, and viral hepatitis can also affect multiple organs, including the kidneys.

It is strongly advised to consult a nephrologist if you have been diagnosed with diabetes to ensure regular kidney evaluations. Additionally, if you experience severe pain, nausea, vomiting, fever, and chills alongside a diagnosis of kidney stones from your primary care physician, it is wise to seek the expertise of a nephrologist.

If it is your first visit or you have been referred from another hospital, please bring all your medical records, including information about past medications, diagnostic reports, and insurance documents. Our administrative team will assist you in organising your reports and completing any necessary forms. Also, feel free to bring a list of questions you may want to ask during your appointment.
