The Department of Nephrology and Renal Transplant at Yashoda Medicity and Yashoda Super Speciality Hospital, Kushambi, provides comprehensive care for kidney-related diseases. Our focus lies in early detection, disease prevention, effective management of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and advanced therapies such as dialysis and renal transplantation. By combining medical excellence, personalized treatment, and compassionate care, we aim to ensure better outcomes and improved quality of life for our patients.
Hemodialysis
This is a life-sustaining treatment for individuals with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). A machine filters the blood through a dialyser to remove toxins, extra fluid, and waste products that the kidneys can no longer clear. Common symptoms in ESRD like fatigue, swelling, and nausea improve significantly with regular hemodialysis. It is usually done at a hospital or dialysis centre several times a week.
Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD)
CAPD is a home-based dialysis option where the lining of the abdomen (peritoneal membrane) acts as a natural filter. A special dialysis fluid is introduced into the abdominal cavity through a catheter, which absorbs waste and excess fluid, later drained manually. It allows flexibility, independence from centre-based visits, and is often preferred by people who want to maintain a more normal daily routine.
Glomerulonephritis
This refers to inflammation of the kidney’s tiny filtering units, the glomeruli. It may result from infections, autoimmune disorders, or systemic conditions. Symptoms include blood in urine (hematuria), protein leakage (proteinuria), and swelling, especially around the eyes and legs. A kidney biopsy is often necessary to confirm the exact cause and guide treatment.
Diabetic Nephropathy
This is a complication of long-standing diabetes where high blood sugar damages kidney filters. It is usually detected by the presence of protein in urine, along with swelling in the legs and rising blood creatinine levels. If not managed early, it can progress to kidney failure. Strict control of blood sugar and blood pressure helps slow its progression.
Kidney Stones (Renal Stones)
These are hard deposits made of minerals and salts that form inside the kidneys. They can move into the urinary tract, causing severe pain radiating from the loin to the groin, blood in the urine, and sometimes blockage of urine flow. Treatment ranges from pain management and increased hydration to surgical procedures like lithotripsy, depending on stone size and location.
Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)
UTIs occur when bacteria infect the urinary tract, which may involve the bladder, ureters, or kidneys. Symptoms often include burning sensation during urination, frequent urge to urinate, cloudy urine, and pelvic discomfort. Prompt treatment with antibiotics is important to prevent spread to the kidneys, which can cause more serious complications.
Kidney Biopsy
This is a key diagnostic test where a small tissue sample is taken from the kidney using a fine needle, usually under ultrasound guidance. It helps determine the type and severity of kidney disease, such as glomerulonephritis or diabetic nephropathy, and is critical for guiding treatment decisions.

A tremendous job has been done by Dr. Amit Sharma. I met with an accident in which the ACL ligament of my left knee was completely torn. I met Dr. Amit Sharma then he analysed the situation and told us about the procedure and the time period to recover from the injury. He has performed a successful surgery. The good thing is the confidence that Dr. Amit Sharma has on his surgery that he didn’t put braces on the knee while other doctors put the braces on for a month and then started Physiotherapy which will take a longer time period to heal from the injury.

Dr. Amit Sharma has started the Physiotherapy from the very next day of the surgery and i was discharged in 2 days, and the Physiotherapy is undergoing at my home. It's the 10th day today and I have gained so much confidence in 10 days that I am recovering very fast and in a few weeks I will be able to walk without any support.
Thanks to Dr. Amit Sharma, he is really having magical hands, he is very kind in nature, in my regular visits all of my stress went away after talking to him.
Again Thank You so much Doctor

A young female was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease after developing generalised weakness, loss of appetite, and intermittent vomiting. Investigations revealed impaired renal function with urea of 200 mg/dl, creatinine of 8 mg/dl, and haemoglobin of 9 g/dl. She was started on haemodialysis through a catheter placed in the right side of her neck and was advised AV fistula creation along with maintenance haemodialysis three times a week. She consulted our expert team of doctors, Dr Prajit Mazumdar, Dr Vaibhav Saxena, and Dr Kuldeep Agarwal, at Yashoda Superspeciality Hospital, Kaushambi. They recommended renal transplantation as ...
A young female was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease after developing generalised weakness, loss of appetite, and intermittent vomiting. Investigations revealed impaired renal function with urea of 200 mg/dl, creatinine of 8 mg/dl, and haemoglobin of 9 g/dl. She was started on haemodialysis through a catheter placed in the right side of her neck and was advised AV fistula creation along with maintenance haemodialysis three times a week.
She consulted our expert team of doctors, Dr Prajit Mazumdar, Dr Vaibhav Saxena, and Dr Kuldeep Agarwal, at Yashoda Superspeciality Hospital, Kaushambi. They recommended renal transplantation as the best form of renal replacement therapy. Her transplant workup was initiated, and her mother, who had a matching blood group, was identified as the donor.
After obtaining clearance from cardiology, pulmonology, gynaecology, and psychiatry, as well as approval from the authorisation committee, she successfully underwent renal transplantation with ATG induction. Post-transplant, she maintained good urine output with steadily decreasing creatinine levels and was discharged with a creatinine of 1.2 mg/dl.
She continues to do well on outpatient follow-up, two years after her transplant, with stable graft function.
