Nephrology is the medical specialty specific to the study of normal kidney function, the preservation of kidney health, and the treatment of kidney disease. From diet to medication to renal replacement therapy (dialysis and kidney transplantation) many diseases affecting the kidney are systemic and not limited to the organ itself, and many require special treatment. 

 To best care for their patients, Nephrologists take a comprehensive history and physical exams. This may include requiring information on topics such as present illness, family history, general medical history, diet, medication use, drug use, and occupation, as well as checking for the health status of the blood pressure levels, heart, lungs, peripheral arteries, joints, abdomen, and stomach. Furthermore, blood tests can be used to test the concentration of hemoglobin and platelets, as well as a number of minerals in the body.
