Our
Goal
is to provide comprehensive health care to patients who suffer
from Kidney Disease.
Our
emphasis is the early diagnosis and treatment
of the various diseases known to predispose to Kidney Failure
for example diabetes and hypertension.
Having identified patients
with early Kidney Disease, The Virgin Islands Kidney Center
uses scientifically proven treatment techniques and methods;
aggressively controlling blood pressure, blood sugar and treating
anemia, close monitoring of these and other parameters, and
effective education of each patient on his/her disease process
so that together, physician and patient work cooperatively to
retard progression of the disease.
Our hope
is to make Dialysis unnecessary.
Inevitably, some patients will progress to End Stage Renal Disease.
For those patients The
Virgin Islands Kidney Center provides the full range of treatment
options available, in an environment of understanding and
caring again with emphasis on patient education and patient/staff
cooperation.
The Virgin Islands Kidney
Center's qualified and specially trained healthcare professionals,
it's acquisition of the newest technology in dialysis treatment
equipment-machines, monitors and water treatment systems,
makes it unquestionably the best renal care center in the
Caribbean and among the best in the US.
