In view of the COVID 19 situation, we have to adapt the way that we provide the renal dietetic service to accommodate a reduced work force and a changing work load.
Unfortunately we are currently only able to provide telephone reviews for urgent patients. If you have already seen a renal dietitian, please continue with the advice provided.
There are some people who will need to make contact with us. If any of the statements below apply to you, please telephone 02476966161, there is an answerphone facility and all messages are checked regularly:
Indications for you to contact the renal dietitians:
If you contact us with the one of the above symptoms, we will aim to provide you with a telephone appointment, as soon as we are able.
The Kidney Care UK website has very comprehensive information regarding diet and kidney disease, which you may find helpful.

Once the COVID 19 situation is over, should you require an appointment relating to your original referral please phone the Dietetic Department on 02476966161.
May we take this opportunity to wish you and your family the best during this time.

Please ensure you have a current blood test request form, if not please contact your hospital consultant or GP and they will post one to you. Unfortunately, your blood test will need to be rescheduled if you do not have a blood test request form when you come to a Blood Test clinic.
All blood tests are by appointment, please book an appointment using the Book Online button below.
If you have an appointment and cannot attend, please remember to cancel or reschedule your appointment so that someone else can use the time slot that you no longer need.
If you cannot book an appointment online, family and friends may be able to help – you can book appointments for more than one person from one account. Booking online is the quickest way to make an appointment.
If this is not possible, there is a telephone line for those who cannot book online. Please call 02476 153546 between 8am and 1pm Monday to Friday, excluding Bank Holidays.
