Introduction Message

Renal Medicine (Nephrology) is the medical specialty that handles the diagnosis and treatment of patients with kidney diseases. This programme aims to produce competent physicians who can manage a variety of kidney problems including acute and chronic kidney diseases, fluid and electrolyte disorders, glomerulonephritis, dialysis and hypertension.

The NHG Renal Medicine Residency Programme is a 3.5-year training programme structured to offer specialist medical training to any resident who wishes to pursue a career in Nephrology. Aside from clinical competence, we hope to develop physicians who are professional, compassionate, and possess the habit of lifelong learning.

Our faculty is committed to providing the resident with a trainee-centred and an outcome-based education process, with defined competencies in each year of training. The resident will also have the opportunity to participate in medical education, research, and clinical leadership in an open and nurturing environment.

The journey in Renal Medicine will not only be an enriching experience but also a great opportunity to forge good and enduring relationships with colleagues.
