Life doesn’t stop with kidney failure. Our dialysis unit provides safe, comfortable haemodialysis with modern machines, trained technicians and nephrologist supervision — at charitable rates that make long-term dialysis sustainable for every family.
For patients with kidney failure, dialysis becomes part of life — often 2 to 3 sessions every week, for years. We have built our unit around that reality: comfortable stations, caring staff who know each patient by name, and pricing that doesn’t exhaust a family’s savings.
Each session runs on modern haemodialysis machines with RO-purified water, single-patient monitoring, and strict infection control. Separate dedicated machines for hepatitis B and C positive patients protect everyone.
A nephrologist oversees the unit — reviewing patients regularly, adjusting dialysis prescriptions, and managing complications like anaemia, BP fluctuations and access problems.
Regular scheduled dialysis for chronic kidney disease patients — fixed weekly slots so your routine stays predictable.
Urgent dialysis for acute kidney injury, poisoning, fluid overload and dangerously high potassium — 24×7.
AV fistula assessment, catheter placement coordination and access-site care education.
Regular nephrologist consultations — dialysis prescription review, medication and diet management.
Dietician guidance on fluid limits, potassium, phosphorus and protein — crucial between sessions.
Review of your kidney reports; dialysis plan and access (fistula/catheter) discussed.
Viral markers (HBsAg, HCV, HIV), blood tests and access check before first session.
Fixed weekly slots assigned (morning/afternoon/evening) as per availability.
4-hour sessions with vitals monitoring; doctor on call throughout.
Monthly labs and nephrologist review to fine-tune your dialysis and medicines.
Shifting from another centre, or newly advised dialysis? Call us — we will review your reports, check slot availability and explain subsidised pricing.
Transfers from other centres welcome
Our charitable rates are among the lowest in the region — substantially below private hospitals. Patients under government schemes may receive sessions cashless or heavily subsidised. Our desk will calculate your exact per-session cost and check every scheme you may qualify for.
Yes, transfers are common and welcome. Bring your recent dialysis records, viral marker reports and nephrologist notes. Our nephrologist will review them, and we will allot you fixed slots as per availability — usually within days.
The needle insertion into your fistula causes brief discomfort — most regular patients say it becomes routine. During the 4-hour session you can rest, sleep, read or watch your phone. Some patients feel tired or experience BP dips, which our staff monitor and manage.
Hepatitis B and C can spread through blood. Dedicating separate machines and areas for positive patients is the international standard for preventing cross-infection — it protects every patient in the unit. This is also why viral markers are tested before your first session and periodically after.
It depends on the cause. Acute kidney injury sometimes recovers, allowing dialysis to stop. Chronic kidney failure usually requires lifelong dialysis — unless a kidney transplant becomes possible, which our nephrologist can discuss and guide you on.
Missing sessions lets fluid and toxins build up — causing breathlessness, dangerous potassium levels, and emergency hospitalisation. If you must miss a slot, call us immediately to reschedule within a day. Never silently skip.
Call our dialysis unit for slot availability, transfer process, and subsidised pricing — we will make it sustainable for your family.
