Introduction of Medical Department

The kidney is a bean-shaped organ located on both sides of the spine in the back and functions to regulate water in the body by excreting waste. In addition, it is an organ that is involved in blood pressure control, sugar metabolism, and bone metabolism and secretes hormones that produce red blood cells.

The Department of Nephrology identifies causes and provides specialized treatment for urinary tract infection, hematuria, proteinuria, glomerular disease, acute renal damage, chronic renal disease, diabetic nephropathy, hypertensive nephropathy, and hypertension caused by renal disease. We provide the best medical care for these diseases to delay the progression of renal function deterioration through medical drug therapy, diet therapy, and lifestyle management. In addition, when kidney disease progresses and renal function decreases, hemodialysis treatment is performed to replace renal function.

The artificial kidney room of Busan St. Mary's Hospital is equipped with the latest hemodialysis machines, high-efficiency hemodialysis filtration devices, and the best water purification facilities, providing the optimal dialysis environment for dialysis treatment in a pleasant and spacious space.
