Pharmacists provide pharmaceutical care for kidney disease patients who usually take several medications together. Our pharmacists:

• Provide knowledge and understanding of medications, e.g. information on how to take medications, how medications interact with the body, and medication side effects (and how to minimize them)
• Educate to improve patient’s desire for drug administration adherence
• Assess and identify drug related problems such as drug interaction, duplication, allergy, etc. and work with your doctor on how to minimize negative side effects
• Perform medication review for patients who have more than one physician or disease

• Chronic Kidney Disease program: Nephrologists work with patient care team to provide consultation and education with the main purpose is to prevent or delay the progression of chronic kidney disease and the development of complication
• Kidney transplantation program:  Our transplant programs are multidisciplinary, with combined medical-surgical clinics and inpatient services (please note there are legal limitations for transplantation services for international patients which are strictly adhered to - please ask us about these limitations before scheduling an appointment)
• Nutritional consultation: Education of patients with chronic kidney disease that may need to limit their intake of protein, salt, phosphorus and potassium to prevent further complication of chronic kidney disease

• 8 Private examination rooms
• Treatment rooms for minor procedures
• Vital signs & phlebotomy stations
• Education room
• Education material (Handouts, flipcharts, video)
