To provide additional recommendations, your doctor, an attending physician, or another specialist may consult a nephrologist or kidney specialist during your stay in the hospital.
- Medical history, physical exam, and appropriate blood work will be included in the consultation to determine the cause of your kidney-related issues and to treat your medical condition appropriately.
- Our nephrologists will also administer the care of dialysis patients who are admitted to the hospital for any issues.
- Our nephrologists will follow up with you on an everyday basis while you are in the hospital and if need be, may ask you to follow up on an outpatient basis.
