Einstein's Nephrology services are available for patients with any stage of kidney disease, fluid and electrolyte disorders, dialysis care, hypertension, diabetes and kidney stone disease. The Division offers personalized, clinical care using state of the art technology and top rated doctors, while helping patients manage their condition.
Additionally, the Division's multi-disciplinary team teaches and trains medical residents and students, participates in research for basic and clinical aspects of nephrology and transplantation, as well as disease management for patients with diverse types of kidney disease. We treat patients with a wide range of conditions, including diabetes and high blood pressure and end-stage renal disease. We also help patients through every step of a kidney transplant from evaluation, diagnosis, surgery and follow-up care.
Einstein's Division of Nephrology is actively engaged in ongoing research and clinical trials to help develop and identify new therapies, medications and treatment techniques aiding in the fight against kidney disease and its underlying causes.
