Nephrology deals with kidney diseases. At the Centre of Excellence in Nephrology at Manipal Hospitals, our specialised team of nephrologists, kidney transplant surgeons, Interventional Nephrology Radiologist and urologists work together to diagnose and treat the entire gamut of kidney-related conditions in the best possible way. In the treatment of unique kidney conditions which may require a kidney transplant, our quaternary care experts are experienced to handle the most complex cases delicately.
At Manipal Hospitals, Bangalore, our expert nephrologists integrate state-of-the-art technology with compassionate care to provide comprehensive kidney treatment. We stand out because:

Quaternary care, which is a highly specialised field in the medical profession, is at the core of our treatment protocol. This is because we have the finesse and state-of-the-art medical technology to equip our transplant surgeons to perform the most complex of kidney transplants. Along with this, we offer a range of services, including dialysis, kidney biopsy, laparoscopic or robotic surgeries, and transplants, creating vascular access.
Statistics reveal that one out of three kidney patients waiting for a kidney transplant are unable to get one despite having a blood group-compatible donor kidney. This is precisely because the patient may have a tissue mismatch due to sensitisation, which results in a high chance of rejection. At Manipal Hospital, these recipients undergo successful desensitisation therapy to achieve a successful transplant.
Desensitisation services available are:
Plasmapheresis
Immunoadsorption
Immunosuppressive drugs
The range of Outpatient and inpatient services includes in-centre day care procedures such as dialysis. This encompasses the entire spectrum of dialysis services that include: - Hemodialysis IP & OP (Adult/Pediatric/Neonatal) - Peritoneal Dialysis – CAPD/CCPD (Adult/Pediatric) - SLED – Sustained Low Efficiency Dialysis - CRRT – Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy - Nocturnal dialysis - Plasmapheresis - Mobile Dialysis - Online Haemodiafiltration (HDF).
Swelling, odd urine changes, or stubborn high blood pressure are warning signs of kidney problems. A simple blood test (creatinine, eGFR) tells us how your kidneys are doing. Early help often slows the disease and improves outcomes.
We offer in-centre haemodialysis, home haemodialysis, and automated peritoneal dialysis. Your nephrologist helps you choose what fits your lifestyle and health needs. Training and a 24/7 helpline keep you confident and secure.
Acute kidney injury often heals fully if care is received early on when the condition is still reversible. Chronic disease can’t be cured, but it can be slowed down with proper management – check with our doctor for diet modifications, blood pressure control, and medications.
This truly depends on your health conditions and individual risk factors. For healthy individuals, annual kidney tests and urinalysis may be recommended as part of a regular medical check-up. But diabetes or high blood pressure patients or those with a family history of kidney disease may need more frequent testing, potentially in 3–6 months. Our nephrologists in Bangalore set up a schedule based on your lab reports and goals. Regular monitoring helps doctors change your ongoing treatment before issues worsen.
Yes, kidney transplants often offer better quality of life and longer survival. However, they require lifelong immune-suppressing medications and carry surgical risks. We review your health, donor options, and lifestyle to guide your choice.
Having a medical condition like kidney failure or a chronic kidney condition can affect your whole life. Manipal Hospitals has dedicated to providing high-quality, personalised care and building long-term partnerships with its patients.
