This unit is part of a large pediatric multidisciplinary department of 80 beds including day care facilities. The multidisciplinary team dedicated to rare kidney diseases (physician, nurse, social worker, psychologist, dietetician, teacher) takes care of all aspects of children with kidney diseases from the prenatal period to transition towards adulthood, except kidney transplantation which is performed in association with Bordeaux Children's Hospital.
