When to consult a nephrologist

Nephrologists treat kidney disease — declining kidney function, protein or blood in the urine, blood pressure that resists treatment, and electrolyte disorders — and manage dialysis and care before and after a transplant. Stones and urinary obstruction are usually a urologist's work, and the two specialities refer to each other often.

  • A creatinine or eGFR result outside the normal range
  • Protein or blood found in a urine test
  • Blood pressure that stays high on several drugs
  • Swelling of the legs or face
  • Planning for dialysis or a transplant
