Dedicated to Every Child's Kidney & Urinary Health

A pediatric nephrologist is a pediatrician with dedicated fellowship training in kidney and urinary tract diseases in children. Conditions treated include Nephrotic Syndrome, recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs), blood or protein in urine (hematuria/proteinuria), childhood hypertension, kidney stones, hydronephrosis, congenital renal anomalies, and chronic kidney disease.

Puffiness around the eyes, especially noticed first thing in the morning and sometimes accompanied by ankle or abdominal swelling, can be a cardinal sign of Nephrotic Syndrome. In this condition, the kidneys leak large amounts of protein into the urine, lowering blood albumin and leading to fluid retention. A simple urine routine test can confirm if protein is present.

Please bring all prior medical reports, including routine urine and urine culture tests, recent blood reports (creatinine, electrolytes, blood count), ultrasound abdomen/KUB scan films and reports, pediatrician referral notes, and a list of current medications and dosages.

Yes. High blood pressure in children and adolescents is more likely to be caused by underlying kidney or vascular issues (secondary hypertension) than in adults. Identifying the cause through a pediatric nephrology evaluation allows timely treatment and protects the heart, eyes, and kidneys.

Not always. Transient proteinuria can occur during fever, strenuous activity, or simply standing up (orthostatic proteinuria, common in tall teenagers). However, persistent protein on multiple morning urine samples warrants a specialist evaluation to rule out glomerular conditions.

Recurrent UTIs in children require more than antibiotics. We perform a systematic evaluation including ultrasound of the kidneys and bladder, review of bladder-bowel habits, and, when indicated, specialized tests like MCU/VCUG to check for Vesicoureteral Reflux (VUR) where urine flows backward towards the kidney.

Yes! With timely diagnosis, tailored medications, and careful monitoring, the vast majority of children with conditions like Nephrotic Syndrome, reflux, and glomerular disorders attend regular school, play sports, and grow up into healthy adulthood.
