Kidney function decline, CKD, or stones — talk to a nephrologist for $29.

Common questions
- What labs should I have before the session?
- Recent CMP (creatinine, BUN, eGFR), urinalysis with albumin-to-creatinine ratio, and any prior trends if you have them. For stone patients, prior stone analysis if available.
- My GFR dropped 10 points. Is that an emergency?
- Not automatically — context matters. Dr. Brooks can walk through whether your specific drop fits acute (reversible) or chronic patterns and what workup clarifies it.
- Can she help me avoid dialysis?
- For CKD that hasn't progressed to end-stage, yes — early-stage management can slow progression significantly. The session covers BP targets, diet, and medications proven to help.
- I keep passing kidney stones. Why?
- There are several stone types with different prevention strategies. The session covers what type you likely have, what to test, and what diet/medication actually prevents recurrence.
