Nephrology at Apollo Clinic Zoo Road

At Apollo Clinic Zoo Road, a unit of Apollo Hospitals, our nephrology consultant specialises in children's kidney health — paediatric nephrology.

About our nephrology care

Specialist care for children's kidneys

The kidneys filter waste and extra fluid from the blood, balance minerals, and help control blood pressure. Nephrology is the branch of medicine that deals with kidney health and disease. At Apollo Clinic Zoo Road, our nephrology consultant is a senior paediatric nephrologist, focused on kidney conditions in infants, children and adolescents.

Paediatric kidney conditions range from urinary infections and bedwetting to more complex problems such as nephrotic syndrome or congenital kidney conditions. Early, specialist evaluation helps protect a child's long-term kidney health.

When to See a Paediatric Nephrologist

These are common reasons to seek a paediatric nephrology opinion for a child.

  • Swelling around the eyes, feet or abdomen

    Puffiness that is often more noticeable in the morning.

  • High blood pressure in a child

    Blood pressure readings above the normal range for a child's age.

  • Blood or protein in the urine

    Found on a routine urine test, even without other symptoms.

  • Frequent urinary tract infections

    UTIs that keep coming back, which can sometimes point to an underlying kidney or urinary tract issue.

  • Bedwetting beyond the usual age

    Bedwetting that continues well past the age it is expected to stop.

  • A known kidney condition at birth

    Kidney findings picked up on an antenatal scan, or diagnosed soon after birth.
