Alport Syndrome is a genetic disorder characterized by progressive kidney disease, hearing loss, and eye abnormalities. It results from mutations affecting the type IV collagen in the basement membranes of the kidneys, ears, and eyes. Symptoms typically include hematuria, proteinuria, and gradual loss of kidney function. There is no cure, but early diagnosis and treatment can slow disease progression and improve quality of life. Our expert team provides comprehensive care, including genetic counseling, regular monitoring, and supportive therapies to manage Alport Syndrome.

Bartter Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that affects the kidneys' ability to reabsorb salt, leading to imbalances in electrolytes such as potassium, calcium, and magnesium. This can cause symptoms like growth retardation, muscle weakness, and dehydration. Treatment focuses on managing electrolyte imbalances and supporting normal growth and development. Our specialized care team offers personalized treatment plans, including medications and dietary modifications, to effectively manage Bartter Syndrome and improve patient outcomes.

Bladder Pain Syndrome, also known as Interstitial Cystitis, is a chronic condition characterized by bladder pressure, bladder pain, and sometimes pelvic pain. The exact cause is unknown, and symptoms can vary widely among patients. Treatment options include medications, physical therapy, bladder instillations, and lifestyle changes to alleviate pain and improve bladder function. Our urology team provides comprehensive evaluation and individualized treatment plans to help patients manage their symptoms and enhance their quality of life.

Carcinoma Prostate, or prostate cancer, is a common malignancy in men, developing in the prostate gland. Early detection through screening methods like PSA tests and digital rectal exams is essential for successful treatment. Treatment options include surgery, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, and chemotherapy, depending on the stage and aggressiveness of the cancer. Our oncology team provides advanced, personalized treatment plans, focusing on the latest medical innovations and patient-centered care to achieve optimal outcomes and maintain quality of life.

Diabetic Kidney Disease, also known as diabetic nephropathy, is a complication of diabetes that affects the kidneys' ability to filter waste from the blood. It is characterized by proteinuria, declining kidney function, and eventual kidney failure if not managed properly. Early detection and strict control of blood glucose and blood pressure are critical to slowing disease progression. Our renal care specialists offer comprehensive management plans, including medications, lifestyle changes, and regular monitoring, to preserve kidney function and prevent complications.

Glomerular Disease refers to a group of conditions that affect the glomeruli, the tiny filters in the kidneys responsible for removing waste and excess fluids from the blood. These diseases can cause symptoms like proteinuria, hematuria, and reduced kidney function. Treatment varies depending on the specific type of glomerular disease and may include medications, dietary changes, and sometimes dialysis. Our nephrology team provides expert diagnosis and tailored treatment plans to manage glomerular diseases effectively and improve patient outcomes.

Horseshoe Kidney is a congenital condition where the kidneys are fused together at their lower ends, forming a U-shape. While many individuals with this condition are asymptomatic, it can sometimes lead to complications such as urinary tract infections, kidney stones, and hydronephrosis. Treatment focuses on managing these complications and maintaining kidney function. Our multidisciplinary team offers comprehensive care, including monitoring and interventions as needed, to support patients with Horseshoe Kidney and ensure their long-term health.

Hydronephrosis is the swelling of one or both kidneys due to a build-up of urine caused by an obstruction or blockage in the urinary tract. This condition can lead to kidney damage if not addressed promptly. Symptoms may include pain, urinary tract infections, and impaired kidney function. Treatment involves identifying and relieving the obstruction, which may require surgical intervention. Our urology specialists provide thorough evaluations and customized treatment plans to manage hydronephrosis effectively and preserve kidney health.

Interstitial Cystitis, also known as Bladder Pain Syndrome, is a chronic condition characterized by bladder pressure, bladder pain, and pelvic pain.
