Kidney Health NZ

Founded in 1979 as a non-profit organisation, supporting & advocating for kiwi kidney patients. Kidney Health New Zealand relies on public contributions to do our work.

1 in 10 people have kidney disease and most don't know it. A kidney can lose up to 90% of its function without showing any symptoms. Early detection is the best way to prevent the deterioration. Early detection changes lives.

Kidney Health New Zealand provides free community prevention testing, raises awareness of this chronic illness, provides education sessions for GP's on the management of kidney disease in their patients, and supports research into kidney health.
