What We Treat

We specialize in treating a diverse range of medical conditions, leveraging advanced therapies and personalized care to address your unique health needs. From chronic diseases to acute conditions, our dedicated team is committed to restoring and maintaining your well-being

Amyloidosis

What We Treat: Amyloidosis occurs when protein fragments called amyloid build up in your organs, including the kidneys, and hinder proper organ function. This protein build up can result in proteinuria and acute or chronic kidney failure.

How We Treat: The goal of treatment is to reduce amyloid protein production. Chemotherapy medications used for various types of cancers may be used to treat amyloidosis. In some cases, organ transplantation is considered when renal function is severely compromised.

Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD)

What We Treat: ADPKD is a genetic kidney disease characterized by the growth of cysts within the kidneys. Over time, the kidneys become enlarged and unable to perform correctly.

How We Treat: Therapy is focused on symptoms and progression management. Blood pressure management is essential. We may recommend medications such as ACE inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers. Interventions to drain kidney cysts may be recommended if the cysts are large and causing pain or other complications.

Cystic Fibrosis

What We Treat: Cystic Fibrosis predominantly affects the lungs but can also affect the kidneys via recurrent infections and stones.

How We Treat: Care is focused on hydration management to help thin mucous secretions, antibiotic treatment for infections, and kidney stone intervention or treatment if needed.

Glomerulonephritis

What We Treat: Glomerulonephritis occurs when the small blood vessels in your kidneys (glomeruli) become inflamed. This inflammation can result in kidney dysfunction and failure.

How We Treat: Depending on the type and cause of glomerulonephritis, treatment may vary but often includes steroids or other medications to lower glomerular inflammation by suppressing your immune system. In some cases, we may recommend a diet low in protein, salt and potassium.

Kidney Failure

What We Treat: Acute or chronic kidney failure occurs when your kidneys lose their filtering capacity and waste products, including excess fluid, build up in your body.

How We Treat: We treat kidney failure with dialysis, which filters waste products and excess fluid from the blood, and kidney transplantation if needed. Diet management is also an important aspect of kidney failure.

Lupus Nephritis

What We Treat: Lupus nephritis is kidney inflammation caused by systemic lupus erythematosus, or lupus, an immune system disorder

How We Treat: Care for lupus nephritis focuses on suppressing your immune system to lessen glomerular inflammation with medications such as corticosteroids, immunosuppressant drugs and antisense drugs. Blood pressure and cholesterol management are also key.

Nephrotic Syndrome

What We Treat: Nephrotic syndrome is a kidney disorder that causes the loss of large amounts of protein in the urine, low levels of blood protein, high levels of cholesterol and swelling.

How We Treat: We treat nephrotic syndrome with medications to lower cholesterol and blood pressure and prevent blood clots and inflammation. We may prescribe diuretics to help manage swelling.

Pyelonephritis

What We Treat: An infection of the urinary tract, pyelonephritis is essentially a UTI that has spread to the kidney and can lead to permanent kidney damage.

How We Treat: This condition is generally treated with a 7-10 day course of antibiotics. Hospitalization with treatment of antibiotics through an IV may be necessary in severe cases. Treatment time varies depending on the infection’s severity.
