Peritoneal Dialysis
Peritoneal dialysis is a treatment that uses the lining of your abdomen to filter waste products from your blood when your kidneys are too damaged to perform this vital function. Because it is performed by you in the comfort of your own home, peritoneal dialysis offers greater flexibility and control over your daily schedule compared to in-center dialysis. At Medicine and Nephrology Associates, our skilled physicians and care team have guided many patients through the process of learning how to safely and effectively perform peritoneal dialysis. We provide comprehensive education, hands-on training, and ongoing support to ensure you feel confident in managing your treatment, while also delivering complete medical care for kidney failure. With treatment centers in Los Alamitos, Long Beach, and Norwalk, California, expert help is always close by. To learn more about peritoneal dialysis and whether it may be right for you, call Medicine and Nephrology Associates or schedule an appointment online today.
