Overview

Kidney stones range from gravel-like crystals to large staghorn formations and are one of the most common urological problems. The most frequent type is calcium oxalate (60–80% of stones), followed by struvite, uric acid, and cystine. Untreated stones can cause severe pain, infection, and lasting kidney damage.

Diagnosis combines blood and urine tests, ultrasound, and a non-contrast CT KUB scan — the gold-standard investigation when ultrasound doesn't show enough detail. We offer the full range of stone treatments under one roof and pair them with a metabolic workup to identify why stones form and prevent recurrence.

Common Signs & Symptoms

Sudden severe pain radiating from the loin to the groin (or down to the testis, scrotum, labia, or front of thigh)
Blood in urine
Painful or burning urination
Nausea, vomiting, fever with chills
Frequent nighttime urination

1

Endoscopic stone removal using laser — no incisions, day-care procedure.

3

Keyhole surgery for large or complex kidney stones.

4

Flexible ureteroscope and laser for stones high in the kidney.

5

Metabolic Stone Workup

Comprehensive evaluation to identify recurrence risk and prevent future stones.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I need surgery?
Small stones often pass on their own. Larger or symptomatic stones may need ESWL, URS, or PCNL — we recommend the least invasive option that works.
Can I prevent future stones?
Yes. With proper hydration, dietary changes, and targeted treatment based on your metabolic workup, recurrence can be significantly reduced.
