Kidney Know-How

If you’ve experienced recurrent kidney stones or are at risk for kidney disease from high blood pressure or diabetes, get expert advice from CPMC providers. Physicians, registered dietitians, nurses and clinical social workers can provide a wealth of scientifically founded information to help you avoid or manage kidney stressors.

Sutter educators offer classes and support groups across our Northern California network, providing wisdom and encouragement on diet, exercise, smoking cessation, medications, pregnancy-related kidney care and more.

If you already have end-stage kidney disease, our staff will be at your side, helping you understand your two treatment options: dialysis or kidney transplant.
