Nephrologists specifically treat diseases that affect the kidneys and their ability to function, such as diabetes or kidney failure.

Urologist and nephrologists often work together to coordinate care for a single patient if an overlapping condition is present.Urology is a surgical specialty—nephrology is not ( Read more about nephrologists in Kenya)
