Preparing for Your Kidney Appointment

Organize priorities, questions and records, and prepare a printable visit sheet. This interactive organizer requires JavaScript. If this message remains visible, check that the full code is in one Raw HTML element and scripts are permitted.

Prepare for your first nephrology appointment or your next follow-up visit with this free kidney appointment checklist from Integrative Kidney Institute. Identify your top concerns, note changes since your last visit, and organize the questions you want to discuss with your kidney care team.

Build a printable visit sheet and a checklist of records to bring, including kidney test results, home blood pressure readings, and your medication, herb, and supplement list. Our integrative approach also makes room for questions about nutrition, sleep, movement, gut health, family history, and environmental exposures.

Use the planner for yourself or help a family member prepare with their permission. During the appointment, record the next steps you agree on, who will arrange them, and when to follow up. This is an educational organizer—not a diagnosis or treatment recommendation.
