A nephrologist is a doctor who treats patients with kidney problems, hypertension (high blood pressure), electrolyte disorders, who are on dialysis, or who have a kidney transplant. Once you have been diagnosed with a form of kidney disease, early referral to a nephrologist is important in preserving and protecting your kidney function. CKD stands for chronic kidney disease. CKD is defined as a decreased level of kidney function or the evidence of kidney damage for greater than three months. Sometimes the only manifestation is persistent protein or blood in the urine. Individuals at risk for developing kidney disease are those with diabetes, high blood pressure or a family history of kidney disease.

Whether you are seeing him for chronic kidney disease, CKD management, dialysis care, or a kidney transplant, Dr. P will be with you every step of the way.
