Kidney check

Your kidneys do a huge job every day: they filter the blood, remove waste and excess fluid, and help keep your fluid balance and blood pressure in check.

Yet changes in kidney function do not always show straight away. You may feel fine while the first signs only appear in test results or on an ultrasound.

That is why we put together the “Kidney check” package: a basic examination of how your kidneys work, with the results reviewed by a doctor straight away.

What’s included?

• Urinalysis: shows the state of the urinary tract and picks up signs of inflammation and other changes.
• Creatinine and urea: key markers used to assess kidney function.
• Kidney ultrasound: shows the size, position and structure of the kidneys and detects stones, cysts and other structural changes.
• Urologist or nephrologist consultation: the doctor reviews your results, explains them in plain words and answers your questions. If anything is out of range, you will hear what to do next and whether further tests are needed.

Package price €99 instead of €110

When should you check your kidneys?

The check is especially useful if you notice:

• swelling of the face or legs;
• pain or discomfort in the lower back;
• changes in the colour, smell or amount of urine;
• frequent or painful urination;
• raised blood pressure;
• a previous kidney or urinary tract condition.

And if you feel fine, you can take the check as preventionto make sure the key markers are normal.

Everything you need in one programme

Instead of choosing tests yourself and trying to make sense of the results, you get the core diagnostics and a specialist’s consultation.

Book the package “Kidney check” by phone or with the booking form on the website. The front desk will find a convenient time and tell you how to prepare.
