Pediatric Nephrology

The Pediatric Nephrology Division at the University of Michigan excels in patient care, research, and physician training. The division's goals are to provide state-of-the-art care for patients with all forms of kidney disease from infancy through late adolescence, as well as to advance our knowledge about pediatric kidney diseases.
