Nephrology
A
nephrologist is a physician who specializes in the management
of kidney diseases and electrolyte imbalance produced by kidney
failure. They also care for patients who require routine dialysis.
For those patients who require a kidney transplant, the nephrologist
works with the transplant surgeons to continue providing care
for those patients. After completing medical school, nephrologists
spend three years training in internal medicine with two years
of additional training in nephrology.
