Nephrology

The Department of Nephrology at Aster MIMS is a leading center for the diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases. Our dedicated team of specialists is committed to providing comprehensive and compassionate care to patients with all stages of kidney disease, from early detection to advanced treatment options. We understand the challenges that come with kidney-related health issues, and our mission is to support you and your family every step of the way.
Advanced Dialysis and Critical Care

We offer a wide range of state-of-the-art dialysis treatments to meet the unique needs of our patients. Our services include:

  • Hemodialysis:  High-flux dialysis for all maintenance dialysis patients with regular rounds by expert doctors with regular maintenance and monitoring of water quality and dialysis standards.
  • ICU Dialysis and CRRT (Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy): For critically ill patients in our Intensive Care Unit (ICU), we provide specialized dialysis treatments. We have two dedicated machines for CRRT, which allows for a gentler and continuous form of blood purification, essential for patients with unstable conditions.
  • Maintenance Hemodiafiltration: This advanced form of dialysis provides a more efficient and effective way of cleaning the blood, offering better outcomes and quality of life for long-term dialysis patients.  It is offered for a select group of premium patients at high risk of low blood pressure while undergoing dialysis 

We also offer specialized extracorporeal therapies (blood purification outside the body) such as hemoadsorption. This unique treatment uses special filters to remove various poisons and toxins from the blood, providing a crucial life-saving option for patients with certain types of poisoning.
Pioneering Kidney Transplantation

Our kidney transplant program is one of the most active and successful in the region, with a legacy of excellence since 2006. We have successfully performed over 1,200 kidney transplants to date, giving hundreds of patients a new lease on life.
What sets us apart is our dedicated in-house team of transplant surgeons and physicians who work together seamlessly to provide personalized care. We are equipped with a unique transplant lab that performs essential tests, including cross-matching, HLA typing, and sensitisation risk assessments, to ensure the highest level of compatibility for a successful transplant.

Our surgical team is equipped with the skills and infrastructure to perform advanced minimally invasive laparoscopic and robotic transplant surgery, which often results in less pain, smaller scars, and a faster recovery for our patients.
Innovators in Kidney Transplantation
We are proud to have been the first center in this region to perform a blood group-incompatible kidney transplant back in 2011. Since then, we have successfully performed more than 75 such complex procedures, expanding the pool of potential donors and offering hope to patients who previously had no suitable donor.
We are also pioneers in kidney exchange programs, having performed multiple inter and intra-hospital surgeries. In 2012, we performed the first paired kidney exchange in Kerala. Since then, we have completed close to a hundred exchanges, including complex three-way and four-way exchanges, helping multiple patients and their families find compatible donors.

At Aster MIMS  we are committed to providing world-class kidney care with a human touch. Our team is here to guide you through your journey to better health.
