End-Stage Renal Disease Care and Treatment Options in the Greater Atlanta, GA Area
End-stage renal disease (ESRD), also known as end-stage kidney disease, takes place as kidneys lose function due to chronic kidney disease. With end-stage kidney disease, the kidneys can no longer filter wastes and fluids from your blood, causing hazardous levels to accumulate in your body. End-stage renal disease requires either dialysis or a kidney transplant, though conservative options may help with symptom management to enhance quality of life.
