Nephrology

At Biocare Oncology & Therapeutics, we work with nephrologists to treat kidney disorders. A nephrologist is a doctor that specializes in the study of the kidney. They diagnose, treat, and manage acute and chronic kidney problems and diseases.

 They also treat associated issues like high blood pressure, fluid retention, and electrolyte and mineral imbalances. Kidney issues are on the rise around the world, with millions of people each year undergoing treatments for kidney injury or chronic kidney disease (CKD). Chronic kidney disease can also lead to health complications like anemia, osteoporosis, a weakened immune system, or an irregular heartbeat.

In fact, kidney disease ranks as the 12th leading cause of death globally and the 9th leading cause in the United States. In the United States, 15% of adults are believed to have chronic kidney disease. Biocare Oncology & Therapeutics provides the most advanced specialty medications to treat kidney disorders. We specialize in injectable, infusible, and oral drugs to provide our patients with the best therapeutic option suited for them. The most commonly treated kidney disorders are chronic kidney disease (CKD), chronic urinary tract infection, recurring kidney stones, foamy urine (proteinuria) and renal bone disease. The medications we offer may be self-administered in the comfort of your own home or may require a healthcare provider to administer it for you at our Oncology & Therapeutics center.
