Kidney Disease
If Your Kidneys are Failing, Help is Here
We provide dialysis and peritoneal dialysis treatments
Dialysis removes toxic substances from your blood when your kidneys are unable to. Most commonly, it’s used for people suffering from kidney failure, but the procedure can also be done to remove drugs or poisons from your body.
Dialysis can be done at the hospital or at home through a process called peritoneal dialysis. This works by using a membrane inside the abdomen (peritoneal membrane) and special solutions that help remove toxins. Although this kind of dialysis can allow you to have dialysis in the comfort of your own home, it must be done every day.
