About Urine Analysis

A urine analysis, often ordered and interpreted by a nephrologist, is a foundational diagnostic test that provides critical insights into kidney function and overall health. This non-invasive procedure involves the laboratory examination of a urine sample to assess its physical, chemical, and microscopic properties. It helps detect a wide range of conditions, including urinary tract infections (UTIs), kidney diseases, diabetes, and liver problems. By evaluating components like protein, glucose, blood cells, and specific gravity, a nephrologist can diagnose disorders, monitor disease progression, and evaluate the effectiveness of treatments. It is a quick, safe, and essential tool for preventive health screening and managing chronic kidney conditions.

PATIENT REVIEW

I'd been to three other doctors...

I'd been to three other doctors for this nagging pain and fatigue, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Sukanya was different. She actually sat and listened to the whole, messy story, asked about things no one else had, and ordered a specific test the others hadn't. Turns out it was something quite rare. She explained it to me in plain Tamil, drew a little diagram on her notepad. I felt heard for the first time, and finally had a path forward.
