Over a year ago my left kidney stopped functioning and I was referred to Dr. Deshpande. Since that time, my BP steadily increased, in spite of taking 7 different classes of medication. Dr. Deshpande approached my situation methodically with several tests and in the end concluded that my failing kidney must have been the cause of my high hypertension. He advised me to have it removed, which was done by Dr. Mangesh Patil, robotic/keyhole surgeon.
