Maine Nephrology follows the vision of The National Kidney Foundation which was established in 1950 by Ada DeBold in an effort to save the life of her young son.

Mr. Armstrong has a history of renal insufficiency and uncontrolled hypertension, along with symptoms of fatigue, pedal edema, and occasional shortness of breath. He does not have a history of trauma or obstruction to his kidneys, but his creatinine and BUN levels are currently at 3.5 mg/dl and 40 mg/dl.

Intrarenal acute renal failure can be categorized as

In November of 2015 I was told I needed a surgery to correct a malformation of my kidneys. The doctor explained that when I was developing in my mothers womb two kidneys formed on my right side. I worried as to what problems it could cause to have a non-functioning duplicated kidney.
