Renal Medicine, also known as Nephrology, is the medical management of patients with kidney disease and associated diseases. Nephrology focuses on diseases affecting kidney health and in particular kidney function; on systemic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension and autoimmune disease that affect the kidneys; on systemic disease that may result from kidney dysfunction and kidney failure; and on congenital and genetic conditions affecting the kidneys. Renal physicians have a specialised knowledge of medications to manage kidney dysfunction; and of medications which may contribute to chronic kidney disease and how to prevent this.

The standard fee for an initial Renal Medicine consultation is $496.
