Dr. Pankaj Deshpande is Paediatric Nephrologist and Currently Working as Consultant Pediatric Nephrology in the Paediatric Nephrology Department at P. D. Hinduja Hospital, Mahim, Mumbai, India.
He is having more than 30 years of experience in the field of paediatrics and paediatric nephrology.
He has completed his MD in Paediatrics from Bai Jerbai Wadia Hospital, Mumbai in 1995, DCH, FCPS in Child Health and MRCP from London.
Profile Highlights :
- Dr. Deshpande trained at KEM and Wadia hospitals during his MD in paediatrics and then spent 10 years in the UK specialising in paediatric nephrology. After working at Birmingham Children's Hospital and Guy's Hospital in London, he was Consultant Paediatric Nephrologist at Southampton General Hospital from 2001 to 2005 before returning to Mumbai in 2005.
- He manages all problems in paediatric nephrology, including dialysis and kidney transplantation in children, nephrotic syndrome, nephritis, tubular disorders, renal dysplasia, urinary tract infections and vesico-ureteral reflux. He also works on the prevention of chronic kidney disease in children and adults and on how medicines affect kidney function.
- His research has highlighted the kidney risks of using painkillers such as ibuprofen and mefenamic acid for fever or pain in children, and has shown that in vesico-ureteral reflux it is often the underlying renal dysplasia, rather than the reflux itself, that drives long-term kidney dysfunction. He has published in Pediatric Nephrology, Archives of Disease in Childhood, Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation and the Indian Journal of Kidney Diseases.
- He has presented at the European Society of Paediatric Nephrology and IPNA, speaks regularly at Pedicon, Mahapedicon and CMEs, and edits paediatric nephrology sections of IAP books.
