Treatments

To provide you with the best possible care, your Mount Sinai team will design a treatment plan based on your overall health and the type and severity of your kidney disease. You are unique, so our nephrologists are dedicated to helping you achieve the best possible quality of life with a unique treatment plan.

As we evaluate your condition, we take into consideration your lifestyle and your and your family’s needs. When appropriate, we include your family and others close to you who may be part of your support system and your care.

At Mount Sinai, we offer the latest advancement in kidney treatment provided by a highly specialized, interdisciplinary team.

Treatments We Offer

Since our clinicians and researchers are continually working to improve treatments and outcomes, we are also able to provide your patients access to advanced clinical trials.

Although we are committed to helping you avoid dialysis or transplantation, if those forms of treatment become necessary we offer convenient, state-of-the-art dialysis services and specialists who will help you manage your day-to-day life.

In partnership with Mount Sinai's Recanati/Miller Transplantation Institute, we offer adult and pediatric kidney transplantation. If you require transplant surgery, you have the benefit of Mount Sinai’s close coordination of care between our nephrologists and our transplant surgeons before and after surgery.

Specific treatment options are woven into your treatment plan as needed and may include:

  • Dialysis
  • Medications
  • Palliative care
  • Support in making lifestyle changes
  • Surgery
  • Transplantation
