Your kidneys play a major role in maintaining good health and general well being. They are vital to the body's daily functions.
Kidney Dialysis and Kidney Transplantation are both treatments for kidney failure caused by chronic kidney disease. There are 2 forms of dialysis, namely haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.
