Specialist 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 of kidney
cancer, prostate operations and removal of kidney stones are
usually handled by a different type of physician known as
a Consultant Nephrologist.

 Kidney 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.
