Caring for kidney disease in kids
Kidneys are an important part of the body’s “team” because they filter the blood and remove all the waste. If your child has a kidney disease or disorder, we're here to join their team. We diagnose and treat kidney problems like frequent urinary tract infections (UTI), congenital kidney issues and urinary tract problems. Kidney problems can occur for many reasons, ranging from something in your child's genetics to infections and blockages.
