Welcome to Nephrology Consultant of Georgia, where we offer a variety of renal replacement therapy options, including peritoneal dialysis. Peritoneal dialysis is a procedure used to filter your blood when your kidneys are no longer able to adequately remove waste from your blood on their own.
In contrast to hemodialysis, during peritoneal dialysis, fluid flows through a tube (catheter) into your abdomen. After a set period of time, the fluid with the filtered waste products flows out through the same catheter and is discarded. Peritoneal dialysis may be the better option if you can’t tolerate the rapid changes of fluid balance associated with hemodialysis or want to minimize the disruption of your daily activities.
At Nephrology Consultant of Georgia, our team of experienced nephrologists and healthcare professionals work with each patient to develop a personalized treatment plan that takes into account their specific needs and goals.
