This Clinic brings together staff from Addenbrooke’s Hospital: Nephrology, Medical Genetics, Urology and Clinical Biochemistry to see patients whose disease usually needs to be looked after by one or more of these specialties.

The Clinic was set up in February 2005 with initial funding for two years from the Department of Health as part of its Mainstreaming Genetics programme.

Patients may be referred by their general practitioners (GPs) or by hospital doctors from Addenbrooke’s, from local hospitals or from further away if there is no local centre.

 

What does the clinic offer?

  • The clinic has a consultant nephrologist, medical geneticist, urologist and chemical pathologist and a specialist renal nurse.

  • We have the expertise in the clinic at a single visit to evaluate fully and care for the patient, which should lead to better and more efficient care.

  • We have access to genetic counselling and can arrange diagnostic mutation screening for selected conditions where the causative gene is known.
