Pediatric Nephrologists in Bangladesh — Find & Book
A Pediatric Nephrologist is a child specialist (paediatrician with further training in kidney medicine) who diagnoses and treats kidney, bladder, urinary and blood-pressure problems in babies, children and teenagers. In Bangladesh, parents are most often referred for nephrotic syndrome (puffy face and swollen legs with frothy urine), repeated urinary tract infections, blood or protein in the urine, acute and chronic kidney disease, high blood pressure, bedwetting that persists beyond age 5-7, and antenatal hydronephrosis (a swollen kidney picked up on pregnancy ultrasound). They also manage electrolyte and growth problems and guide families through dialysis and transplant when kidney failure is advanced. A typical consultation involves a detailed history, a focused examination, checking blood pressure and growth, and reviewing or ordering tests such as urine R/M/E, urine ACR, serum creatinine, electrolytes and a kidney ultrasound. Because many childhood kidney diseases relapse, the doctor usually explains long-term medicine (often steroids), diet and follow-up. See a Pediatric Nephrologist if your child has unexplained swelling, abnormal urine, recurrent UTIs, high blood pressure, or a kidney finding on a scan.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a Pediatric Nephrologist cost in your area?
In your area, a Pediatric Nephrologist's private chamber consultation fee is usually between 800 and 1,500 BDT. Senior professors and well-known specialists in Dhaka may charge 1,500-2,000 BDT, while follow-up visits are often a little lower. Tests such as urine R/M/E, serum creatinine and a kidney ultrasound are charged separately by the diagnostic centre, typically a few hundred taka each.
How do I book a Pediatric Nephrologist in your area and what should I expect?
You can book by calling the chamber or hospital directly, or through an online appointment platform. Carry your child's previous prescriptions, urine and blood reports, vaccination card and any ultrasound films. At the visit the doctor will take a detailed history, examine your child, measure blood pressure, height and weight, and may order or review urine and blood tests. Because kidney conditions like nephrotic syndrome often relapse, expect a clear treatment plan and a follow-up schedule.
Who is the best Pediatric Nephrologist in your area?
The "best" Pediatric Nephrologist in your area depends on your child's specific problem. Look for an MBBS doctor with paediatric and kidney qualifications (such as FCPS or MD in Paediatrics with nephrology training), good hospital experience, and strong parent reviews. On this page you can compare verified Pediatric Nephrologists in your area by their degrees, years of experience, chamber, fees and patient feedback to choose the right one for your child.
Can I get an online or telemedicine consultation with a Pediatric Nephrologist in your area?
Yes. Many Pediatric Nephrologists in your area now offer online video or phone consultations, which are useful for reviewing test reports, adjusting medicines, and routine follow-up of conditions like nephrotic syndrome. However, a first visit, a sick child with heavy swelling or fever, or anything needing a physical examination is best done in person. You can filter for doctors who provide telemedicine on this page and book a video consultation directly.
