A physician with expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of kidney disorders is known as a nephrologist. If you have any indications of kidney disease or other conditions that could harm your kidneys, you should consult the best nephrology doctor in Mumbai. Our nephrologist expert in Mumbai will treat your condition, order tests, and review your medical history during your visits.
Nephrologists diagnose and treat disorders of the kidneys, including renal failure. Furthermore, they understand the impact kidney diseases have on various other body parts, such as:
Some of the most common conditions that a nephrologist may treat include:
• Diabetic and other kidney diseases.
• High blood pressure.
• Kidney failure.
• Cystic kidney disease.
• Kidney stones.
• Nephrotic syndrome.
• End-stage renal (kidney) disease.
• Hemolytic uremic syndrome.
• Urinary tract infections (UTIs).
• Kidney infections.
• Hyponatremia and other electrolyte disorders.
• Toxic overdoses that require dialysis.
• Glomerulonephritis (GN).
Patients are referred to Nephrology specialists in Mumbai for some specific disorders like:
Hemodialysis (HD) is a treatment for Kidney failure that uses a dialysis machine to clean the blood. The patient’s blood flows from his or her vascular access through a dialysis machine and is cleansed of extra waste and fluids and sent back into the body.
The department at the top Nephrology hospital in Mumbai has fully automated and motorized beds/chairs with remote control functions to ensure patient comfort. Each bed is provided with an individual LCD TV with headphones for their entertainment.
This facility turns nonproductive sleep time into Hemodialysis treatment time. Patients receive Hemodialysis in their dialysis centre overnight for 6 to 8 hours while they sleep. This increases their productivity and prevents loss of vital daytime for treatment.
Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) is a type of dialysis which can be done at the patient’s home, using the thin membrane, called the peritoneum, which lines the abdomen to perform dialysis treatments. A cleansing fluid is put into the patient’s abdomen through a small, flexible tube called a PD catheter.
The department provides home hemodialysis treatment with Fresenius 4008 model and portable RO water treatment plant. Hemodialysis is done by a qualified technician in consultation with the Nephrologist. This can be done either on an outright basis or on monthly rental schemes.
The patient can take this treatment at home. This treatment will be supervised by PD nurse and a team of the best Nephrologist in Mumbai. Round the clock telephonic assistance is provided to the needy patients. We also have home visit facilities undertaken by dialysis nurses for all services including performing exchanges, incenter PD training, cycler assisted IPD (CCPD- Continuous Cycler Peritoneal Dialysis), catheter insertions and transfer set change.
The department provides dialysis services on wheels for immobile patients and patients hospitalized in nursing homes.
To perform dialysis (whether hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis) an access to the blood stream is essential. This can be done through performing certain surgical procedures such as: arterio venous fistula creation and graft insertions, permanent and temporary hemodialysis catheter insertions and/or peritoneal dialysis catheter insertions.
Our Top Nephrology Surgery in Mumbai believe that it is a well-accepted and documented fact that kidney transplantation is the best option to replace the kidney function rather than dialysis. In India till date, transplantation includes:
Kidney is donated by first degree relatives like mother, father, brother or sister. Spouses can be also considered as donors.
Cadaveric transplantation: Retrieval of kidneys from a brain dead individual only after the consent of his/her family. You will need to register yourself with the Zonal Transplant Coordination Center (ZTCC) for cadaveric transplantation. Your nephrologists will guide you regarding the same.
Transplantation across two couples (husband and wife / mother and son / father and daughter / so on) who due to non-compatibility of the blood groups cannot donate to each other but have a strong wish to donate. Swap transplants are proving to be a boon in increasing the number of transplants in our country, legally.
Our Nephrologists will provide you a detailed insight about transplantation and help you make the best suitable decision.
Apex Kidney Care - Dr L H Hiranandani Hospital wants to bring clinical research into India in a big way and will be one of the main centers to do quality research in the field of dialysis and transplantation. With excellent lab facilities, in house and best nephrology surgeon in Mumbai with good experience in clinical research, we feel that we can make a difference by contributing to further developments in the field of nephrology.
Apex Kidney Care also undertakes training courses for dialysis technicians and nursing staffs who aspire to work in the field of nephrology.
