Chronic kidney disease
Specialized assessment and follow-up for chronic kidney disease, kidney function changes and progression risk.
About this condition or treatment
Chronic kidney disease involves lasting damage or reduced kidney function. It may cause no symptoms early on, so blood and urine tests are important, particularly with diabetes, hypertension or a family history of kidney disease.
When to seek nephrology care
Specialized assessment and follow-up for chronic kidney disease, kidney function changes and progression risk.
Common reasons for assessment
- Reduced kidney function on laboratory tests

- Diabetes, hypertension or other chronic conditions
Specialist approach
