Dr. Aruna Phekoo
Overview
I am a nephrologist specializing in the care of patients with kidney disease and related conditions such as high blood pressure and certain autoimmune disorders. I also treat electrolyte imbalances and help patients who are approaching kidney failure understand their options, including whether and when to start dialysis. I support patients in choosing the type of dialysis that best fits their needs and discuss the possibility of kidney transplantation by coordinating referrals for evaluation when needed. I believe in empowering patients with knowledge so they can make informed decisions about their kidney health.
