Nephrology
Dialysis center
Dialysis mechanically filters the blood when kidneys can no longer do so adequately on their own.
Who this is for
- Advanced chronic kidney disease
- Kidney failure symptoms (swelling, fatigue, reduced urination)
- Doctor-recommended renal replacement therapy
What it involves
Regular sessions (typically 3x weekly for hemodialysis) at a dialysis center, each lasting several hours.
What to expect
Dialysis is a recurring, long-term commitment unless a transplant becomes an option — scheduling consistency matters a great deal.
