Abstract

Caring for a child with kidney stones is not a one-person responsibility. It truly takes a village to properly care for the pediatric nephrolithiasis patient. These patients are inherently complex and there are many aspects of their care. This chapter will detail the necessary participants involved in a successful multidisciplinary pediatric kidney stone clinic and how these medical providers work collaboratively to care for children with stone disease.
