Welcome to the Pediatrics, Renal Section
(Pediatric Nephrology)

Pediatric Nephrologists at Baylor College of Medicine provide evaluation and treatment for children with congenital or acquired kidney disease at Texas Children’s Hospital and Ben Taub General Hospital. Each institution has outpatient clinics where patients with kidney disorders are diagnosed and provided therapeutic intervention, education, and multidisciplinary support including renal nutrition, social work and child life experts. Active clinical care and research programs for patients requiring chronic and acute dialysis and renal transplant are available at Texas Children's. The philosophy is that of patient and family-centered care, state-of-the-art treatment, and research that focuses on improving quality of life for renal patients.

We offer an ACGME accredited program for fellowship training. A uniquely challenging and rewarding experience, the 3-year curriculum provides exposure to an exciting variety of acute and chronic cases within an exceptionally well-rounded program that prepares the physician/scientist for a successful career in academic medicine or clinical care.
