Nephrologists treat kidney disease with medicines, diet and dialysis — while urologists treat stones, blockages and kidney surgery. At Satyadev Hospital both teams work together, with a dialysis unit and ICU under one roof.

A nephrologist (DM/DNB Nephrology) treats medical kidney disease — chronic kidney disease, high creatinine, kidney damage from diabetes or blood pressure, protein in urine, and dialysis. A urologist (M.Ch Urology) treats surgical problems — kidney stones, blockages, prostate, tumours and transplant surgery. At Satyadev Multi Super Speciality Hospital, nephrologists Dr. Gita Bipin Chandra (MBBS, MD, DM) and Dr. Munindra Kumar (MBBS, MD, DNB) work alongside urologist Dr. Kumar Rajesh Ranjan, with a dialysis unit and ICU.
