The Division of Nephrology under the department of internal medicine is responsible for the diagnosis and treatment of kidney related diseases. We are also committed to protect the kidney health of people in Taiping and surrounding areas.

The Hemodialysis Center in our division was established in 1969. Currently, there are 26 hemodialysis beds and an audio-visual system is installed on each dialysis bed to provide a high-quality and comfortable dialysis environment and improve patients’ willingness and quality of dialysis. In April 1991, the peritoneal dialysis room also was established and provide another choice of ways in renal replacement therapy.
