About

Consultant Physician and Nephrologist Dr. Yaw Chong Hwa practises at Regency Specialist Hospital, where his care covers the full spectrum of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and the problems that accompany it. His clinical interests reach into interventional nephrology — dialysis access and kidney biopsies among them — as well as kidney transplantation. A central aim of his work is slowing CKD's advance so that dialysis may be postponed or avoided altogether, and he gives careful attention to glomerulonephritis, including lupus nephritis. Patients with Diabetes Mellitus and hypertension also benefit from his management, which places strong emphasis on protecting the kidneys, and his scope extends to Renal Replacement Therapy/Dialysis and Acute Febrile Illness. Within the medical community he is a respected speaker, regularly presenting at conferences on the management of CKD and Diabetes Mellitus.
