Nephrology

Nephrology stands as a specialized branch within internal medicine, concentrating on diagnosing and treating kidney-related illnesses.

The kidneys hold a pivotal role in expelling waste and toxins, regulating blood minerals, and upholding the body’s osmotic equilibrium. Consequently, any harm or disturbance to these organs can impede these vital operations, potentially compromising the patients’ health and overall quality of life.

In 2003, the Department of Medicine at Shalamar Hospital launched the Mian Jahangir Dialysis Center, designed to cater to individuals suffering with Chronic Kidney Diseases.
Headed by a team of extensively trained specialists and furnished with 22 haemodialysis machine, the center plays a pivotal role in ensuring the utmost standard of tailored patient care
