Kidney Diseases

The urinary system serves the purpose of purifying blood and generating urine as a by-product of waste elimination. Consisting of essential organs like the kidneys, renal pelvis, ureters, bladder, and urethra, this system undertakes various vital functions, including waste removal, regulation of blood volume and pressure, control of electrolytes and metabolites, as well as maintaining the blood pH. Disorders related to the urinary system are addressed by two distinct medical subspecialties known as Urology and Nephrology.

Urologists specialize in managing issues involving the bladder, penis, testicles, urinary tract, and male reproductive system, while nephrologists focus primarily on disorders related to the kidneys. Due to the overlap in treating kidney-related conditions, distinguishing between the services of nephrologists and urologists can sometimes be confusing, and patients may require consultations from both specialists for the same problem.

In the region, Medica Superspecialty Hospital, Kolkata, stands as one of the finest medical centers, housing top-notch urologists and nephrologists. Our hospital offers advanced care and treatment for all types of urological and nephrological disorders, encompassing a comprehensive specialty of Kidney Diseases. Kidney ailments affect a significant number of people in the country, often remaining unnoticed until urine/blood checkups or abdominal Sonography are conducted. Many patients with kidney disease show no symptoms. Our skilled doctors possess extensive experience in treating common urological and nephrological conditions, such as incontinence, kidney stones, nephritis, impotence, prostate disorders, and kidney failure, among others. Equipped with state-of-the-art medical facilities and dedicated staff, we are committed to providing holistic solutions to all our patients.
