Apart from delivering top notch patient care, they are actively involved in carrying out front line academic research in Nephrology.

Team of Nephrology comprises of 3 eminent consultants

They are backed by AKD staff of 10 persons to provide round the clock dialysis facilities.

9 state of the art hemodialysis machines, high capacity reverse osmosis water plant with the facility to provide bed side dialysis to all ICU patients, and 8 beds in AKD (artificial kidney department) to provide 24 x 7 dialysis facility.

Round the clock Hemodialysis and Nephrology services are offered.

1. Hemodialysis: There are around 25 machines for hemodialysis, 16 stations in AKD and remaining for ICU and ICCU
2. Peritoneal dialysis: Counseling, patient acceptance, options for manual or automated peritoneal dialysis and training for the same are provide with help of a special team.
3. Kidney biopsy: Performed by nephrologists and reported by histopathologist, in close conjunction with nephrologists so as to achieve best diagnosis through best clinic pathological correlation.
