When it comes to your kidney care, our goal is to provide the best care experience, together.  

When attending our clinics you can expect us to:

  • Partner with you in your treatment for kidney disease
  • Share information with you in a way that you understand
  • Work with you to schedule appointments around your dialysis schedule
  • Treat you as a person and understand your specific care needs
  • Act with empathy, kindness and respect for your health needs and privacy
  • Provide a safe environment
  • Provide opportunities for you to participate in research if interested

What we expect from you:

  • Arrive on time and be ready for appointments, making sure you have completed any necessary tests or bloodwork
  • Always bring your medications and blood sugar monitoring devices to your appointments
  • If you are unable to make an appointment, let us know as early as possible
  • Let us know if there are any changes to your health
  • Share your contact information and update it either by phone, email, or in person
  • Treat us with respect and courtesy
  • Continue to see your family doctor for care not related to kidney disease
  • Ask questions if there is something you are not sure about
