It’s National Kidney Awareness Month and we’re getting back to kidney basics! Most individuals don't think about their kidneys on a daily basis, but those two small bean-shaped organs are vital for those with kidney disease or who have had a kidney transplant. How do kidneys work? How do you know when they aren’t working? How does dialysis work? Can chronic kidney disease progression be prevented? These are just some of the things we’ll discuss with Dr. Amar Patel, Nephrologist with Balboa Nephrology, and Cynthia Polis, Care Management & Education Nurse with Balboa United.
