Nephrology
Nephrology – Managing Kidney Disease in a Challenging Clinical Setting
Explore the challenges of nephrology in the Caribbean, where rising rates of hypertension and diabetes contribute to a high burden of chronic kidney disease. Our program and its Clinic Sessions provide exposure to renal failure management, dialysis care, and electrolyte disorders in a setting with limited access to nephrologists and advanced treatment options.
With dialysis availability restricted and kidney transplants rare, physicians must focus on early intervention and resourceful patient management. You’ll observe how specialists navigate these constraints while providing essential care to patients with acute and chronic renal conditions.
