Nephrology

Nephrology is a medical super speciality that deals with the functioning of diseases related to the kidney. Kidneys are the sophisticated filtering units of the body. On average, the kidneys of a healthy adult process about 180 litres of blood daily to dispose of the extra water and waste material in the form of urine.
