If your kidneys are failing, dialysis can save your life. But what exactly is it—and how does it work? At Reberth Dialysis, we make kidney care simple, safe, and supportive—starting with knowledge.

🌟 What is Dialysis?

Dialysis is a treatment that filters your blood when your kidneys can’t. It removes waste, extra fluid, and toxins—helping you feel better and stay healthy.

🩺 Two Main Types of Dialysis:

  1. Hemodialysis – Blood is cleaned using a machine.
  2. Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) – Uses your abdomen lining to filter blood internally.

💡 Who Needs Dialysis?

Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) or chronic kidney failure often need dialysis multiple times a week.

💬 At Reberth Dialysis…

We provide both in-home hemodialysis and support for peritoneal dialysis, allowing patients to receive life-saving care without leaving their homes.
