Kidney Clinic
The Pediatric Kidney Clinic specializes in caring for young patients, ranging from infants to teens, with kidney or urinary tract conditions. We have the expertise and technologies to offer the most advanced treatments, including minimally invasive surgery.
Children with end-stage kidney failure have access to our state-of-the-art Pediatric Dialysis Unit as well as our Kidney Transplant Program, considered one of the best in the nation. These patients receive care from a team of experts that includes nephrologists (kidney specialists), transplant surgeons, urologists, nurses, social workers and nutritionists, all of whom have training and experience in meeting the unique needs of young transplant recipients.
