About the Department of Nephrology

Civil Hospital Ahmedabad serves the people of Gujarat and neighbouring regions with a teaching-hospital model where patient care, education and research belong together.

The Department of Nephrology covers the full span of kidney care: prevention and early management of chronic kidney disease, dialysis services, and a kidney transplant programme regulated under THOTA. As an academic department, care is delivered by clinical teams — consultants, residents, nurses and allied staff — rather than resting on any single doctor.

How our department works

  • Kidney clinics for diagnosis, staging and ongoing management of kidney disease.
  • Dialysis services for people who are not yet — or cannot be — transplanted.
  • Transplant evaluation for recipients and living donors, with an independent assessment of the donor.
  • Transparency in publishing: every clinical page on this site is reviewed by the department before it goes live.

What we will tell you honestly

We will not publish unverified numbers, patient stories we cannot attribute, or superlative claims without evidence. What you read here reflects what a careful clinical team actually asks you and what the science actually says.
