21 years and I absolutely love what I do. My goal is to provide the highest level of care for children with kidney diseases to help them maintain good health. My clinical interest includes Nephrotic syndrome, kidney diseases with genetic cause, acute kidney injury and acute dialysis while my research is focussed on understanding the genetic and molecular mechanisms of kidney diseases particularly nephrotic syndrome and tubular diseases.
