Details
Pharmacist Consultation
Patients with chronic kidney disease commonly take multiple medications for the management of their kidney disease, and co-morbid conditions and drug-drug interactions are common. Our pharmacists will review patients’ medication profile, give advice on the proper use of medications, and ensure the right dose of medication to be used by patients.
Nephrologist Consultation
Our nephrologists will look for the cause(s) of kidney damage through series of examinations including physical, blood, urine, and imaging examination and come up with a customized treatment plan for each patient accordingly. Our nephrologists will also offer comprehensive care to patients with other risk factors causing kidney failure, such as hypertension and diabetes, in addition to their underlying kidney problems to prevent further renal function decline.
Dietitian Consultation
In addition to medication, eating the right diet also plays a crucial role in managing the progression of CKD. Patients in different stages have different nutritional needs, for example they have to employ different levels of low-protein diets to slow down the decline of renal function. Our dietitians will provide personalized dietary advice, which includes ways in selecting, handling and preparing food, to patients according to their health conditions and nutritional needs.
In addition, a dedicated Virtus health consultant will be assigned to each patient to monitor the treatment progress and answer any related questions about the programme.
