Kidney Stone Treatment

What is Kidney Stone Treatment?

Kidney stones are hard mineral deposits that form in the kidneys and can cause intense pain, urinary tract infections, and kidney damage if left untreated. Our nephrologists focus on identifying the metabolic cause of stones and preventing future episodes.

Signs & Symptoms

• Severe flank or abdominal pain (often coming in waves)
• Blood in the urine (pink, red, or brown)
• Frequent or painful urination
• Nausea and vomiting
• Recurrent urinary tract infections
• History of prior kidney stones

How We Treat Kidney Stone Treatment

We manage kidney stones from diagnosis through long-term prevention, partnering with urology when procedural intervention is needed.

• Stone composition analysis (uric acid, calcium oxalate, struvite, cystine)
• 24-hour urine metabolic evaluation
• Dietary modification and fluid intake guidance
• Targeted medical therapy (thiazides, allopurinol, potassium citrate)
• Referral for lithotripsy or ureteroscopy when indicated
• Monitoring for underlying metabolic or kidney conditions
