Title: Kidney Transplant Treatment In Pune
1Specialist Dr. Abhay G. Huprikar The Nephrologist
- A Nephrologist generally sees patients who are
referred by their primary care physicians or
general physicians for problems related to the
kidneys, high blood pressure or certain types of
metabolic disorders. If someone feels they are
having problems with their kidneys, they can seek
out the care of a Nephrologist in Pune When
a kidney doctor first meets with a patient, he or
she will usually go over the patients medical
history and do a complete physical. - A Nephrologist will then do blood and urine tests
to determine how well the patients kidneys are
functioning. He or she may also order a kidney
ultrasound. When necessary, a Nephrologist may
perform a kidney biopsy in order to better
determine what is wrong with the kidneys.
However, a Nephrologist is not a surgeon and
typically does not perform operations. Treatment o
f kidney cancer, prostate operations and removal
of kidney stones are usually handled by a
different type of physician known as a Consultant
Nephrologist.

4Kidney Transplant Treatment in Pune
- Kidney transplant is a surgical procedure where a
functional kidney from live or dead donar is
placed in a person whose kidneys are not
functioning. - When you get a kidney transplant, a healthy
kidney is placed inside your body to do the work
your own kidneys can no longer do. - On the plus side, there are fewer limits on what
you can eat and drink, but you should follow a
heart-healthy diet. Your health and energy should
improve. In fact, a successful kidney transplant
may allow you to live the kind of life you were
living before you got kidney disease. Studies
show that people with kidney transplants live
longer than those who remain on dialysis. - On the minus side, there are the risks of
surgery. You will also need to take
anti-rejection medicines for as long as your new
kidney is working, which can have side effects.
You will have a higher risk for infections and
certain types of cancer. - Although most transplants are successful and
last for many years, how long they last can vary
from one person to the next. Many people will
need more than one kidney transplant during a
lifetime.
