Is your creatinine is rising? You deserve a clear plan for your kidneys.
Dr. Arillon K. Chrysostom is a General & Transplant Nephrologist in Jamaica. If a kidney test has come back abnormal, your blood pressure won't settle, or you've been told you may need dialysis - start here.
Need urgent help? If you have severe breathlessness, chest pain, confusion, you are unable to pass urine, or you've been told a potassium or kidney result is dangerously abnormal, seek urgent medical care now - do not wait for a routine appointment.
Specialist kidney care, explained in plain language
Dr. Chrysostom holds an M.B.B.S. and a Doctor of Medicine in Internal Medicine, with Clinical Fellowships in Nephrology from the University of the West Indies, Jamaica, and the University of Toronto, Canada. He practises as a General & Transplant Nephrologist, and his research has focused on chronic kidney disease prevalence in the Caribbean.
What that means for you
