KIDNEY WELLNESS

The goal of the Kidney Health Program is to educate patients with chronic disease on their kidneys and how to preserve kidney health through group education and individual counselling. Individual visits are also offered with either a Registered nurse for assessment and education, Registered Dietician for an individualized diet plan, and Pharmacist for medication review.

Bloodwork is required upon referral.

Please bring your medications with you to your individual appointment.
