Signs and symptoms of kidney disease are often nonspecific, meaning they can also be caused by other illnesses. Because your kidneys are highly adaptable and able to compensate for lost function, signs and symptoms may not appear until irreversible damage has occurred.
For chronic kidney disease management, call Florida Kidney Physicians or request an appointment online. The doctors at FKP have a long history of success. Combined, they have over 400 years of experience with a variety of sub-specializations.
FKP Nephrologists see patients at seven offices throughout the Tampa metro area in Hillsborough and Pasco County, West Florida and 6 offices in Southeast Florida from Delray Beach to Hallandale Beach.
