Your kidneys are vital organs, per
forming many functions to keep your
blood clean and chemically balanced.
Located near the middle of your back
just below the rib cage, kidneys filter all
the blood in the human body every two
minutes, removing about two quarts of
waste products and excess water each
day.
More than 20 million Americans have
kidney problems, which if left untreated
for too long, can develop into Chronic
Kidney Disease (CKD) and End Stage
Renal Disease (ESRD). At this point
for ESRD patients, the only options
are dialysis or kidney transplant. For
Houston county residents, high-qual
ity dialysis treatments are available at
three clinics thanks to Fresenius Medi-
