Dialysis

Our faculty members oversee the care of patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing various forms of dialysis or renal replacement therapy.

In-center hemodialysis is typically performed three times weekly at a dialysis unit, whereas peritoneal dialysis and home hemodialysis are performed by the patient, typically with a care partner, at home.

Peritoneal Dialysis:
Faculty members provide peritoneal dialysis care (CAPD, CCPD) to patients throughout Nebraska and Western Iowa. The clinic is based at Fresenius Medical Care – Home Unit in Omaha.

Home Hemodialysis:
Faculty members are medical directors for one of the largest home hemodialysis programs in the country.

In-Center Hemodialysis

We provide in-center hemodialysis services at select dialysis clinics throughout Omaha and Western Iowa. Faculty members also serve as medical directors at the Fresenius Medical Care/Renal Advantage Incorporated Care Centers in Omaha, and the DaVita Dialysis Units in Harlan and Shenandoah Iowa.
