What Do Renal Dietitians Do?
As Renal Dietitians, our role is to support people with all stages of kidney disease — whether you have reduced kidney function, are on dialysis, or have had a kidney transplant.
We provide personalised nutrition advice to help manage your condition, maintain your health, and support your overall wellbeing.
How We Help
Our goal is to help you enjoy a balanced and varied diet while keeping key blood results and fluid levels within safe ranges. We’re also here to:
-
Support those struggling with poor appetite or unintentional weight loss
-
Help patients make healthier lifestyle choices
-
Work closely with your kidney care team to provide joined-up, holistic support
What Can We Advise On?
Everyone’s needs are different, and kidney disease often involves managing multiple dietary considerations at once. We offer evidence-based, tailored advice that takes your individual health, lifestyle, and food preferences into account.
We can support you with:
-
Managing potassium and phosphate levels
-
Fluid and salt control
-
Healthy eating guidance
-
Weight management — especially if you're preparing for a kidney transplant
-
Nutritional support if you’re experiencing low appetite or weight loss
When Are We Available?
Our team is available Monday to Friday, 8:00am – 4:00pm.
If you have questions or would like to speak with a Renal Dietitian, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
