01 · Chronic kidney disease
Understanding the condition
Chronic kidney disease means lasting damage to kidney structure or function. Severity is assessed through tests, not symptoms alone.
How treatment planning starts
Kidney function including eGFR, urine tests and the cause of disease matter. Prepare results over time if available.
Treatment options to discuss with a doctor
Care aims to slow deterioration and manage complications. Advanced disease may require dialysis or transplantation; the clinic determines eligibility and conditions.
This is an overview, not a prescription. Availability at Artemis and suitability for your case must be confirmed with the clinic.
IMROMED organisational consultation is free
Records to prepare
Tests, nephrology reports, medicines and, if on dialysis, the schedule and treatment details for coordination with the clinic.
Do not arrange extra tests solely for this list. Confirm the need with your treating doctor first. A complete set is not required for the first conversation.

We help organise an enquiry to this multidisciplinary hospital in India. The clinic confirms treatment options and necessary assessment after reviewing your case.
About the hospital and supportQuestions before your enquiry
Can I pause dialysis for travel?
Do not change your prescribed schedule on your own. Travel requires agreement with your treating team and confirmation of necessary arrangements at the receiving clinic.
How much do treatment and travel cost?
The clinic prepares a preliminary estimate for your case. Flights, accommodation and support services are discussed separately. Before payment, clarify included services, the recipient and terms. There is no single price for all patients.
Can I call before all my records are ready?
Yes. The first conversation helps us understand your enquiry and clarify the records needed. Before sharing medical files, agree a private channel, purpose and recipient. The coordinator discusses arrangements, not a diagnosis.
