Nephrology and dialysis centre
"We attach great importance to professionally competent care, a pleasant, patient-friendly atmosphere and good contact with the referring GPs." Dr Jörg Bleisch, Head Physician Nephrology and Dialysis Centre
Nephrology is the medical speciality that deals with kidney diseases, their diagnosis and treatment. Our specialists treat the entire spectrum of kidney diseases. This also includes renal replacement therapies such as haemodialysis (blood washing), peritoneal dialysis (peritoneal dialysis) or kidney transplantation. In order to provide you with the best possible treatment, we work closely with other specialist departments and your family doctor.

A heartfelt commitment to the kidney
The journey to the dialysis centre is one that patients with chronic kidney failure make several times a week, usually for the rest of their lives. At Zollikerberg Hospital, they are accompanied by Esther Karlen, who has been working as a qualified nurse on the dialysis ward since 2015. In this article, she explains how she supports the patients on the ward not only from a professional but also from an emotional perspective.
