What We Do

We are dedicated to promoting the health of patients with advanced chronic kidney disease. Our interdisciplinary team includes doctors, nurse educators and coordinators, a social worker, a pharmacist, a dietitian and a chiropodist. Together, we will help you to learn how to stay healthy and manage your chronic kidney disease, through education, support and treatment advice. Our approach is to equip you with the knowledge and resources you need to manage your health independently.

Test & Services

The aims of the Multi-Care Kidney Clinic are to:

  • Slow the progression of chronic kidney disease
  • Prevent known related conditions, such as anemia, high blood pressure, heart disease and bone disease
  • Assist patients and their families to adapt to and manage chronic illness by providing them with education and psychosocial support
  • Discuss which type of treatment for kidney failure is the best option for you, including discussing the risks and benefits of the treatments for you.
  • Plan for and facilitate the smooth transition to dialysis and/or kidney transplantation
