About Merit Health Care, PC

The mission of Merit Health Care, PC, is to advocate for adult patients in a way that puts their needs first. Board-certified nephrologist Ghayas Habach, MD, MPH, and the team take on this mission with eagerness and sincerity at Sylacauga and Talladega, Alabama offices. The team offers a wide range of diagnostic testing and treatment services to treat kidney disease and other kidney-related conditions.

Comprehensive treatment services are available for different types of both acute and chronic kidney disease, diabetic kidney disease, and kidney failure. The team uses the latest diagnostic testing technologies to identify kidney issues in the earliest stages. They take a multidisciplinary approach to care to preserve kidney function.

The team also offers in-office testing services to identify the underlying cause of kidney-related symptoms like edema (swelling) and high blood pressure (hypertension). Blood and urine testing are available to diagnose conditions, including hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia. These conditions can reduce kidney function and increase risk factors for kidney failure.

For the treatment and management of chronic kidney failure, Merit Health Care, PC, offers in-office services for hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. The team provides education, equipment, and support for home dialysis treatments. Dr. Habach also performs minimally invasive surgeries to create an access point for dialysis care.
