Conditions & Treatments

Identifying and Managing Kidney Concerns

Your kidneys play a vital role in filtering waste, balancing fluids and regulating blood pressure. When they aren’t functioning properly, it can lead to serious health complications. We work closely with patients who show signs of high creatinine levels, often an early indicator of decreased kidney function, to identify the cause and slow disease progression.

Our nephrology team offers diagnostic evaluations, lab testing and tailored treatment plans designed to preserve kidney function, manage symptoms and improve your overall health.

Support for Chronic Kidney Disease and Kidney Failure

If you are living with chronic kidney disease or have been diagnosed with kidney failure, Virginia Gay Hospital provides compassionate, coordinated care to help you manage your condition. We focus on slowing disease progression, managing related health concerns like high blood pressure or diabetes and preparing you for next steps if advanced care such as dialysis or transplant becomes necessary.
