Autoimmune Kidney Disease Evaluation

Autoimmune Kidney Disease Evaluation focuses on conditions where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the kidneys, such as vasculitis, lupus nephritis, and certain forms of glomerulonephritis. We begin with a careful review of your symptoms, prior labs, and imaging, then perform a detailed examination looking for clues in other organs-skin, joints, lungs, or nerves.

We order targeted blood and urine tests, and, when helpful, coordinate kidney biopsy or additional imaging. Our aim is to arrive at a precise diagnosis rather than a vague label, because different autoimmune kidney diseases require very different treatments.

Once we define the condition, we outline your treatment options and discuss the potential benefits and risks of immunosuppressive therapy. Patients often feel relief simply from understanding what is happening and having a clear plan to protect kidney function and manage whole-body health.
