As one of the nation's largest pediatric nephrology specialties, we care for more than 60 children with end-stage renal disease every year. We also managed more than 700 acute hemodialysis procedures and 22 kidney transplants in 2018. Our work doesn't stop there: UT Southwestern physicians practicing at Children's Health℠ are at the forefront of nephrology research, with four NIH-funded labs investigating everything from fetal hypertension mechanisms to the genes that drive kidney development.
