Nephrology

The Nephrology Department at International Modern Hospital (IMH) provides comprehensive, evidence-based care for patients with kidney disease, chronic kidney disease (CKD), acute kidney injury (AKI), kidney failure, diabetic kidney disease, and hypertension-related renal disorders. In the UAE, where diabetes and high blood pressure are highly prevalent, early detection and specialized kidney care are critical to slowing disease progression and preventing long-term complications.

IMH’s Nephrology Department is led by experienced nephrologists who follow internationally recognized clinical guidelines, including KDIGO protocols, to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. The department offers a full range of diagnostic services such as renal function tests, urinalysis, electrolyte profiling, kidney ultrasound, and kidney biopsy when required. Early diagnosis enables timely intervention, helping to prevent complications such as fluid overload, anemia, electrolyte imbalance, and end-stage kidney disease.

In addition to medical management, IMH provides advanced dialysis services, including hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, along with structured renal replacement planning. The hospital’s modern dialysis facilities are equipped with high-efficiency machines, purified water systems, and continuous real-time monitoring, ensuring patient safety, comfort, and reliable treatment outcomes. Patients with diabetic nephropathy receive integrated care in collaboration with Endocrinology and Cardiology teams to preserve kidney function and reduce cardiovascular risk.

Nephrology care at IMH follows a multidisciplinary approach, with close collaboration between nephrologists, urologists, cardiologists, endocrinologists, dietitians, and specialized dialysis nurses. Each patient receives a personalized care plan that includes kidney-friendly nutrition guidance, lifestyle modification, medication optimization, and regular long-term monitoring.
