      I am a pediatric nephrologist and work with children with kidney disease. Some of the conditions that we see include congenital malformations of the kidney and the bladder, nephrotic syndrome, glomerulonephritis (inflammation of the kidney filters), and children who are on dialysis or who received kidney transplantation because of kidney failure. I listen carefully to parents when they bring their children to the clinic because they know their children better than any other person, and they are the best advocates for their child. I collaborate a lot with the other doctors in the clinic. Rest assured, when you visit our clinic and I am not around, the doctor who is seeing you knows everything about your child. This is a group practice with a very caring multidisciplinary team. Dr. Gbadegesin is rated as an Elite provider by MediFind in the treatment of Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis.

      As a kidney specialist, I see individuals with various degrees of kidney disease, from early-stage chronic kidney disease to patients on dialysis. The kidney is a stoic organ; it suffers in silence. Because the majority of kidney diseases are not painful, many people with kidney disease are not aware of their condition. Early detection of kidney disease could facilitate preventative care. Therefore, I am passionate about raising awareness about kidney disease as well as introducing remedies that could slow the progression of kidney disease to dialysis. When I am not seeing patients or doing research, I enjoy spending time with my family and biking.

      My clinical practice primarily focuses on the maintenance of kidney function and treatment of kidney related diseases. This includes the treatment of acute kidney injuries (AKI), chronic kidney disease (CKD), end-stage renal disease (ESRD), kidney inflammatory diseases (glomerulonephritis), protein loss in the urine (nephrotic syndromes), and genetic kidney disorders. I also help to manage the complications that arise with kidney dysfunction including: anemia of chronic kidney disease, kidney-related hormone disorders (secondary hyperparathyroidism), disorders of blood electrolytes and minerals (potassium, magnesium, calcium, phosphate), fluid retention issues, and uncontrolled hypertension. Additionally, I help patients when other factors cause kidney disease or dysfunction including: high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, liver disease, auto-immune conditions such as lupus, or adverse effects of medications. Lastly, I help patients who have very low kidney function navigate the transition to dialysis when needed. This includes deciding on the optimal timing of transition to dialysis, modality selection, and the coordination of appropriate dialysis access placement.

      I treat patients with kidney disease and those who are at risk for kidney disease. There are a number of common conditions that lead to kidney disease, including diabetes and high blood pressure. I have a specific interest in helping patients recognize and manage these common conditions early on in an effort to limit further damage to the kidneys. For patients with advanced kidney disease, I specialize in discussions about referral for transplant and about the different modalities of dialysis available, including some which can be done at home. I believe in shared decision-making, where the patient is an active participant in their care. When I'm not at work, I enjoy traveling and trying new cuisines with my family.

      What is the definition of Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis?

      Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is scar tissue in the filtering unit of the kidney. This structure is called the glomerulus. The glomeruli serve as filters that help the body get rid of harmful substances. Each kidney has thousands of glomeruli.

      "Focal" means that some of the glomeruli become scarred. Others remain normal. "Segmental" means that only part of an individual glomerulus is damaged.

      When should I see a Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctor near Chapel Hill, NC?

      There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

      • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
      • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
      • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
      • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
      • You want a second opinion.  

      What should I consider when choosing a Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctor near Chapel Hill, NC?

      It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

      How does MediFind rank Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctors near Chapel Hill, NC?

      MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

      What types of insurance are accepted by Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctors near Chapel Hill, NC?

      Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

      How can I book an appointment online with a Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctor near Chapel Hill, NC?

      MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctor search results page. 

      Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctor?

      Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

      How can I prepare for my appointment with a Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctor near Chapel Hill, NC?

      Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

      • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
      • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
      • Family history of disease 
      • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
      • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
      • List of questions and concerns 
      • Your insurance card 

      You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

      What questions should I ask my Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctor?

      Here are some sample questions: 

      • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
      • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
      • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
      • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
      • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

      How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctor may know about?

      MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

      MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

      Can I filter my search to show male or female Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctors near Chapel Hill, NC?

      Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

      Can I filter my search to find a Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctor that offers video calls?

      Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
