Treatments

Nephrologists treat conditions and disorders related to the kidneys, and the treatment options vary greatly. We want our patients to live life with as few symptoms as possible, so we work with patients to find the best treatment for their condition.

Treatments and procedures available at Northwestern Memorial include:

• Inpatient dialysis
• Outpatient and home dialysis for end-stage renal disease dialysis-dependent patients
• Kidney and pancreas transplantation
• Exchange programs for challenging transplant patients
