The Importance Of Treating Kidney Stones Promptly

Kidney stones can strike at the most unexpected time, and some parents from our kidney stone patient community have been delaying treatment due to a lack of childcare arrangements.

Studies have shown that patients who delay treatment by more than 45 days are up to 15 times more likely to have an unplanned clinic visit, and 5 times more likely to develop infections*. Offering some flexibility in treatment scheduling can help to ease patients’ stress and help them to receive timely care.
