Kidney Clinic

The Kidney Clinic at Arkansas Children's treats children and young adults up to 21 years old who suffer from kidney disease. Our team of experts includes nephrologists, clinical nurse specialists, social workers, kidney transplant coordinators, pharmacists, and dieticians who work together to provide exceptional care and help each child reach their best physical, social, and emotional health. We offer comprehensive medical consultations and evaluations, including prenatal counseling, initial diagnosis, kidney replacement therapy such as dialysis and kidney transplantation, and the transition to adult care.

We also have multidisciplinary clinics with Urology for managing complex kidney/bladder disorders (UroNeph Clinic) and kidney stones (Kidney Stone Clinic) and Rheumatology for managing children with lupus (Vasculitis Clinic). Additionally, we provide 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) for evaluating and managing children with elevated blood pressure and hypertension.

Services include:

• Treating children who have potential medical complications from chronic kidney disease, such as anemia, bone disease, high blood pressure and poor growth
• Preparing children for dialysis and kidney transplant, when necessary
• Delivering quality medical care while addressing the psychosocial needs of our patients and their families
