Clinical Expertise

Dr. Gedala specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and management of kidney diseases and related medical conditions. He provides comprehensive care for patients with chronic kidney disease, hypertension, acute kidney injury, dialysis needs, glomerular diseases, electrolyte disorders, kidney stone prevention, kidney transplant care, and other complex nephrology conditions.

He works closely with primary care physicians and specialists to ensure coordinated, patient-centered care and believes that strong communication among healthcare providers is essential to achieving the best possible outcomes.

A Philosophy Centered on the Patient

Medicine has always been more than diagnosing and treating disease. For Dr. Gedala, it is about earning a patient's trust, providing reassurance during difficult times, and empowering patients through education.

He believes every patient deserves to understand their condition, feel heard during every visit, and have enough time to ask questions and participate in decisions about their care. Whether caring for someone newly diagnosed with kidney disease or managing a long-term chronic condition, Dr. Gedala approaches each patient with compassion, respect, and a commitment to excellence.

Why a Solo Practice?

Dr. Gedala intentionally practices in a physician-led solo practice because it allows him to provide the kind of care he believes every patient deserves.

By keeping the practice small and personal, he is able to spend meaningful time with each patient, maintain continuity of care, and build lasting relationships with the individuals and families who trust him with their kidney health.

Patients receive direct care from Dr. Gedala throughout their healthcare journey, ensuring continuity, personalized attention, and a trusted physician relationship every step of the way.

Beyond Medicine

Outside the clinic and hospital, Dr. Gedala enjoys hiking, spending time with his wife, Lata, and their two children, Aarav and Smaya, and exploring America's National Parks. His appreciation for nature mirrors the qualities he brings to patient care: patience, curiosity, lifelong learning, and a deep respect for each person's unique journey.

Caring For Our Community

For over 21 years, Dr. Gedala has cared for patients throughout San Antonio with a focus on thoughtful, personalized kidney care. He has built lasting relationships with patients and families by taking the time to listen, explain, and guide them through the challenges of kidney disease.

His goal is to provide expert nephrology care while creating a healthcare experience where patients feel informed, supported, and confident in their treatment decisions.
