Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a nephrologist and a urologist?

A nephrologist is a specialist in internal medicine and nephrology who treats kidney disease conservatively (with medication). Urologists are surgeons who perform operations on the kidneys and urinary tract. The two specialties work closely together.

Should I bring my test results?

Bring your previous test results, such as laboratory results, ultrasound reports and discharge summaries. A list of the medicines you take is also helpful.

How often should I see a nephrologist with chronic kidney disease?

The nephrologist sets an individual follow-up schedule, from once every 3 months to once a year, depending on the stage of the disease.

Do you have a paediatric nephrologist?

For children, we arrange referral to a paediatric nephrology specialist at a paediatric hospital with a nephrology department.
