Expert Nephrology Services

Welcome to Shanti Vilas Hospital, Prayagraj's premier multi super specialty healthcare center. Our Nephrology department specializes in the diagnosis, treatment, and management of acute and chronic kidney conditions. Recognizing the kidneys' vital role in filtering blood, maintaining electrolyte balance, and managing blood pressure, our team of expert nephrologists provides personalized, evidence-based care.

Conditions Managed by Our Nephrology Team

We provide diagnostic expertise and long-term management for a wide range of renal disorders, including:

• Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and acute kidney failure.
• Hypertension-related renal dysfunction.
• Glomerulonephritis and interstitial nephritis.
• Polycystic kidney disease and nephrotic syndrome.
• Kidney infections and renal artery stenosis.
• Blood or protein in the urine (hematuria/proteinuria).

Advanced Diagnostic Capabilities

Early intervention is critical. We utilize state-of-the-art laboratory and diagnostic tools to accurately assess kidney function:

• Comprehensive Urinalysis: Evaluating pH levels, protein, glucose, and markers of infection.
• Renal Function Testing: Albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) to detect early dysfunction.
• 24-Hour Diagnostic Collections: Precision monitoring via 24-hour urine collection and creatinine clearance testing.

When to Consult a Nephrologist

While primary care physicians manage early-stage concerns, you should consider a specialized consultation if you have:

• A family history of chronic kidney problems.
• Pre-existing conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or heart disease.
• Symptoms like unexplained fatigue, sleep disturbances, or persistent changes in urination.

Integrated Hospital Care

Our nephrology department is fully supported by the hospital’s broader diagnostic, Critical Care & ICU, and administrative infrastructure, including seamless TPA and Cashless Treatment support.
