Kidney Care — Flint Hills Kidney Services
Established by Mercy Regional in November 2007, Flint Hills Kidney Services and Dr. Fadi Bedros, MD, provides diagnostic services and treatment for high blood pressure and kidney-related conditions.
Often regarded as a silent epidemic, kidney disease usually goes unnoticed until it has advanced and symptoms become apparent. With early diagnosis, treatment of kidney disease is more effective and prevention is possible to delay the progression to dialysis. Being the only nephrologist in Manhattan, Dr. Fadi Bedros is helping identify and treat disorders that were previously going undiagnosed in our community.
Conditions treated include:
- Kidney failure
- Proteinuria (protein leakage in the urine)
- Hematuria (blood in urine, visible or microscopic)
- Electrolyte abnormalities
- Acid-base disorders
- Difficult-to-control hypertension
- New-onset hypertension for patients under age 45 and over age 65
- Kidney anatomical abnormalities
- Polycystic kidney disease
- Kidney cysts
- Anemia in the setting of kidney failure
- Iron deficiency in the setting of kidney failure
- Difficult-to-treat osteoporosis in kidney failure patients
- Evaluation of kidney transplant donors
- Pre-heart catheterization evaluation for high-risk patients
