Patient Education

Patient Education is offered as a one on one counseling session to assist the patient in understanding the disease process, explanation of lab tests, medication compliance, and nutrition assistance. Each session is personalized for individual patient needs.

This allows the patient to become an active participant in the understanding and treatment of their kidney disease.
