Kidney disease dietitian support, online across the UK
Living with chronic kidney disease (CKD), dialysis or a transplant list can make food feel complicated. Advice about potassium, phosphate, salt and fluid can be hard to turn into everyday meals, and it can change as your condition changes. I'm an HCPC-registered dietitian offering private, online (virtual) consultations to adults across the UK, working alongside your renal team.
Who this may suit
You may find this helpful if you have CKD at any stage from 1 to 5, if you are on dialysis and want to improve your nutritional intake, if you are preparing for a kidney transplant, or if you would like extra time to turn your renal team's advice into practical meals.
Working alongside your renal team
My support works alongside the care you receive from your kidney team. I'll ask for your recent blood results and current dietary advice, and with your consent I can liaise with your renal dietitian or kidney doctor. Decisions about medication, phosphate binders and fluid limits stay with your renal team.
What a consultation involves
We'll talk about your kidney condition, treatment, appetite, routine and what you currently eat. I'll then help you find a practical way of eating that fits your renal team's advice, with ideas for meals, shopping and food labels, and ways to get enough energy and protein, particularly if your appetite is poor or you are on dialysis. We'll review how things are going and adjust as your situation changes.
Staying in touch with your renal team
Please keep following the advice from your renal team, and contact them or your GP promptly if you have new or worsening symptoms. Kidney disease affects people differently, so we review progress together at a pace that suits you.
