Ask a nephrologist

No question is too small, too obvious or too embarrassing

Send us what is on your mind. Our specialists answer selected questions as general education, so the next person searching at midnight finds a real answer instead of guesswork.

Send us a question

Your question opens in WhatsApp so you can send it directly to our team, and nothing is stored on this website. If you would rather email, write to info@advancedrenalcare.co.za.

A first name or a nickname is fine. Published answers never carry your name.

Please do not include ID numbers, medical aid numbers or detailed personal medical history here. For anything about your own treatment, phone the clinic.

Answers published here are general education for patients and families. They are not a diagnosis, not personalised medical advice, and cannot replace a consultation. If you feel unwell, contact the clinic or your nearest emergency department.

How this works

What happens to your question

  1. 1. It reaches our clinical team directly on WhatsApp or by email.
  2. 2. A nephrologist reviews it and answers you.
  3. 3. If the question would help others, we rewrite it as general education and publish it here — without your name or any identifying detail.
  4. 4. Anything that needs a proper examination or your own results becomes an invitation to consult, because that is the honest answer.

Something urgent cannot wait for a written answer

If you are unwell, breathless, bleeding from an access site or worried about someone right now, phone us or go to your nearest emergency department.
