The way dialysis patients are treated is terrible! The 2 major dialysis companies, Fresenius and Davita, both billion dollar corporations, have taken advantage of dialysis patients for decades. Several whistle-blowers have come forward revealing the corruption inside these dialysis companies, only to social destroyed by the companies. Dr Mueller is leading the way in uncovering the corrupt practices of Davita & Fresenius in his book and on social media.

Drs don’t own the facilities. Fresenius and DaVita do , they work for them , work w them , and are paid a very very hefty salary to manage the clinic 400, 000 is the last I heard for a year. , but the nephrologists can see their patients there instead of in the office. Very rarely are they in the office , they are usually at their clinics …

I’m looking to transition into more “preventative” care. I want to help people, but I’m so tired of the “sick care” model we live in. I care for my patients so much but the company cares primarily about the money and the numbers. It’s exhausting. I want to teach people how to prevent getting to the point of needing dialysis or other treatments for chronic disease in general. They want us sick, not dead. There is no money in health.

Good for you for broadening your knowledge base to do what’s best for your patients. I retired recently after 40 yrs as a critical care/trauma RN who had lots of patients on acute hemodialysis. I swallowed all the academic, allopathic medical doctrines for 40 yrs. Covid woke me up big time! I now sadly understand that while there are caring and compassionate providers, the system is built solely on profit, not cure. If we would only teach proper nutrition our epidemic of diabetes, heart disease, cancer, metabolic disease would dramatically decline. Instead, the food industry has captured the FDA and other regulatory agencies and recommends huge amounts of carbs and sugar in our daily diet. It’s criminal.

My dad went on dialysis in 01 but my mom had been a dialysis nurse in the 80s and I knew quite a good bit about the subject by default. They told my dad he absolutely would not live without it but he'd started going into A-fib nearly every time he'd do a treatment so, after some careful consideration we opted to stop treatments and see what happened. Long story short, he lived 3yrs without dialysis after having done it for 2yrs before stopping. The Lord gave my dad that victory for his faith I believe.

This is kinda long but is my cautionary tale. No kidney function, no warning. I was on dialysis for 10 years, 3-4x a week, 3 1/2 hour sessions. Total kidney failure from a lifelong struggle with DiabetesT2 and obesity, after trying every diet & "failing" since age 12. The staff was nice but very understaffed & rushed from patient to patient, with only one nurse supervising, and I personally saw an unknown-to-me doctor visiting maybe 2x a year. Was told I "might" get a kidney after 2 1/2 years. Nope. Was NEVER told 1-that I could get better so I should just wait for a transplant ...2-that a low-carb diet could reverse DiabetesT2 or that I should restrict carbs at all [just calories as per usual a failing strategy following the ADA diet], just fluids & salt... 3-that my veins overall [including penile] would permanently suffer greatly from the fast removal of excess fluid [& urine]...4-I would never qualify for a transplant at 245+ lbs unless I lost weight from a lap sleeve gastrectomy [removal of 75% of my stomach, which I did qualify for after ballooning to 360+lbs, which STILL required me STARVE myself down to 245lbs before qualifying...5-that people would die at the dialysis clinic [people did]...6-that if I got a transplant any related care would not be covered after 3 years until I aged into Medicare or proved poverty. During dialysis both of legs were amputated, I was confined to a motorized wheelchair, & I lost vision in my right eye, was very depressed & sometimes felt suicidal. Carb addiction kept me spiraling, and more & more injectable insulin was needed to control a highly elevated A1C [12]. I was lucky enough to finally qualify & receive a very good kidney. I decided to protect it to prolong my life, & chucked prevailing medical "wisdom" by following a ketogenic eating plan, now ketovore almost 7 years, A1C 6.0, no insulin. My [required] nephrologist doesn't approve but cannot argue with success, haha. Now 66 & 9 years post transplant with a monthly infusion of Belatacept[Nulojix] to prevent rejection, with 30 monthly labs indicating excellent kidney function, expectation about 18 years before failure, I'm hoping longer. I won't return to dialysis when this kidney fails as I am unlikely to qualify for a 2nd kidney. Walking on prosthetic legs, no more wheelchair, weight 180lbs. "IF" A HIGH FAT DIET GIVES ME A MASSIVE HEART ATTACK [haha, no sign of any heart disease, hypertension, or high blood pressure, so far] I will welcome it. Sounds dark, but life is so much better as a "normal" weight ketovore, and I'm making the most of it. The very best to all of you, and especially Dr. Ken Berry. 😊😊❤❤

I was an RN for DaVita for 10 years. Thank you for shedding light on this! All you say is true! I've heard dialysis treatments in Europe are much longer,gentler treatments. I was a dialysis nurse through covid. DaVita had a policy that stated staff would be compensated at time and a half during an 'emergency situation'. They changed their policy shortly after pandemic started- realizing how much it would truly cost them. That cost them nursing staff! Including myself! Rarely would nephrologists tell their patients what dialysis was REALLY going to be like. Most of my 10 years was spent in acute dialysis- in hospitals. Shortly before I left the field there was a big push by Medicare to move patients to home dialysis,saving them millions . It truly is a miraculous treatment but very abused as a cash cow for greedy doctors.

@hicklife9644 4 месяца назад

I worked for Fresenius medical care as a reuse tech then they trained me to be a patient care tech, my goal was to become a trauma nurse. Where do I begin the amount of stuff I saw the nurse do that jeopardize the patients live was unthinkable, from gross cross contamination going from sticking patients to the cart without changing gloves now mind you several of our patients were hepatitis positive as well. If the dialysis machine would start beeping they would try to clear it, but if it kept up they would add bicarbonate to the premixed solution the machine was taking in which would basically change the perception or enrich the amount which made the machine stop beeping but could change the amount patient was getting which obviously could cause a heart attack or stroke. When i would question them and tell them they cant do that they would tell me what do I know im just a PCT patient care tech and a reuse tech. I would explain when you add an unmeasured amount of bicarbonate directly in to the jug on the machine it changes the amount of total dissolved solids in the water which changes the formula the patient was receiving.... it was a mess they didnt care at all just turn and burn. We had a patient go from fine to sick on treatment and dead 2 days later in my opinion it was due to cross contamination. One time i came to work and the nurses were using a wooden mop handle to mix up bicarbonate in the machine because the mixer breaker was tripped and they didn't know how to reset it. Well the wooden mop handle was the same mop used to mop up blood clots in my reuse room where the artificial kidney ls were cleaned. I came unglued and screamed wtf are you all doing this is a bloddy wooden mop handle and this gets infused into the patient. They said well we bleached it 1st I said its WOOD. I have never see so much lack of patient care and when i went to thr area supervisor Mary Sisco she seemed to not care at all... i later transferred to another clinic in the next town but same company and low and behold the same lack of patient care... i eventually quit as i couldn't stomach the patients behing so vulnerable and nurses not truly caring.😔😢

What you're describing is having a machine's bicarb run out, then adding pure bicarb packets to get the machine back to the right conductivity? Who does that? That is stupid to do. Also, why would the nurses be concerned about bicarb in the back? That's not an RN's job in any clinic I worked at. Sounds like a mickey-mouse operation

As a dialysis nurse I worked both acute in the hospital and chronic in the clinic. Clinic was definitely unprofessional compared to hospital. Drug dealers were fanned over by female techs while ignoring other patients. But I didn't see any unethical behavior by nurses only techs and doctors. Even doctors fanned over drug dealers I think they were paying cash.

This was highly informative. Years ago my father was on dialysis and it was just shear torture. He was so miserable and had no quality of life, and his fistula was constantly getting infected. After so many years of just being a living corpse, he gave up and decided that he wanted to die and refused his dialysis treatment and died within a week. As much a I grieved for his loss, at the same time I was relieved that his was no longer suffering. To me, the whole process was just evil. The torture was unspeakable.

Dr Siripala owned 3 dialysis clinics and was single handedly responsible for thousands of patients being run through his dialysis mills. He certainly has blood on his hands.

@Lindableching the problem specifically is with cannulating at home, and being able to troubleshoot the machine. An AV fistula is the gold standard for HD treatment, but using a 15 gauge needle is scary for a lot of people. You can also do more harm than good pretty easily in HD if you're not paying attention. Not knowing what an alarm means or not physically keeping eyes on your patient and their access, it can be fatal

His diabetes doctors had him on a 200 carb per day diet, and then were shocked when he went blind and his kidneys failed. He has been on dialysis for 18 months now, and he has very poor quality of life. He has quit eating anything except small amounts of desserts, and sleeps all the time. He has gone from a vibrant, vigorous man to this feeble shell of himself. It breaks my heart! The dialysis center sends home recipes for him to eat and they are nothing but sugar.

I worked in acute dialysis in hospitals back in the early 80’s as a nurse, but I worked for the company of the outpatient clinic because there weren’t any dialysis units in the hospitals in my town at that time. I quit after a patient told me she didn’t want to be put on and I reported this to the office and was told to just do it. I said the patient refused. They said she too confused to make a decision, but she logically explained why she was done with the treatment. So I refused and they sent someone else to put her on. I left the field at that time and quit working as a nurse for a few years. When my mother shows signs of renal failure with some output but her cleansing by the kidneys was decreasing slowly, I went with her to the nephrologist she refused dialysis treatment they told her she had at most six months. She lived without treatment for 41/2 years. But without fail she was asked if she wanted to do dialysis each Dr. visit. She always refused. But she lived those years happy and enter hospice and died after six months.

Would love to see a successful artificial kidney soon. Here in California a couple of propositions on the ballot designed to improve safety in the dialysis clinics failed due to DaVita pouring $$M into their defeat. They would trot out their own patients to tell voters to vote "NO" (not like the patients had much choice but to say what DaVita wanted them to say).

The first thing we looked at was not their diagnosis or their age or whatever, it was what insurance they had. Because that dictated everything. From how many treatments they had to what we could do, etc. That’s not how medicine should be. You do not get paid for education. Insurance dictates everything you can do. It’s disgusting. So you try to do what you can but it’s disheartening. There’s a lot of people working in the healthcare system right now that are very disenfranchised and disheartened.

We have incentives for cheap preventative care, whereas in the States there's a lot of profit to be made by situations getting worse... When we try to cut things, we have to consider how it may lead to other higher health costs later, or other types of government costs (e.g. someone becoming long-term disabled and requiring government housing).

@annaangell5646 4 месяца назад

As a nurse, I can tell you that you can get more infections in the hospital. You are safer at home doing just normal soap and water cleaning. Yes PD is usually done overnight for 8-12 hours so the person can be more mobile during the day.

@annaangell5646 4 месяца назад

PD length is individualized to each patient. So the MD will suggest 10hours, however, if the patient is not tolerating it or comes home late and gets connected to their machine late, they may only do 8 hours cuz they have plans in the morning. Then depending on how they are feeling, more short of breath or more edema, the next session they may choose to set it 11 hours to make up for the time lost and the excess salt consumed that day. Once the patient is comfortable with the process, they learn to adjust it.

I am a Home-hemo RN. I train patients and their families to do dialysis in the home (HHD). I agree there are better ways, things need to change, and these companies are mostly out to make money on patients. But I also want to let you know that there are so very many patients out there that refuse to do home dialysis HHD or PD. They don't want to have to be responsible or to participate." It's just easier to come to the unit and it's less time for me" is what I'm told on a monthly basis from people and family members of those people who are fully capable of doing a home modality. It's frustrating, I know and have seen first hand how much better patients do at home for the reasons stated in this video. If you are a patient, have a family member, or care about someone on dialysis please let them know the facts. Thank you and God bless you all.

@tommueller8533 4 месяца назад

Totally agree, Leah, and as per a previous comment, it's a bit like patients who plead for shorter treatment times, even though shorter treatment times kill them faster. I think a lot of the refusal on the part of patients to do home dialysis stems from a dialysis system that is set up to make them passive recipient of care, rather than active participants in their own care. Thank you from the heart for doing what you do - - you are making so many lives so much better!

I also made the decision with a friend of mine who also was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when we were 12 years old, that we would never agree to go on dialysis, because that is not a quality of life we want to live. My friend developed late stage kidney failure in her 40’s. Because of our stance on no dialysis, she was moved to the top of the transplant list. She did undergo a dual kidney/pancreas transplant. It was brutal but she was no longer diabetic & did not need dialysis. Unfortunately she only lived for 3 years after the transplant & passed from a heart attack at age 55.

This whole system sounds like what the American Diabetes Association has been doing to Type 2 diabetics for decades. If you want to die a long slow terrible death, follow their food pyramid. My brother followed the ADA for 20 years before he starting taking his own health in his hands and by using an extreme low carb diet, he completely reversed his T2 diabetes. But, not before it destroyed his kidneys. Now, he has to go through what you describe here with CKD and dialysis. Moral of the story: Do your own research and listen to professionals like Dr Berry and Dr Fung, among others.

We had a few excellent years together while he was on PD and he was a strong advocate of patients taking charge of their healthcare. Unfortunately, other health issues piled on and he had to stop PD. His last year was spent doing hemo in-center and he hated it. All the infections finally caught up to him and he passed away a year and a half ago. He had just turned 53. I miss him.

@user-pf1tb2sg6y 4 месяца назад

A few comments as a Davita RN for a few long months. Our smaller clinic was clean and generally staffed with people who cared about doing a good job. The only “Bullying “ I noticed was done by the opinionated liberal RN who was training me to take over. If the patients didn’t agree with her rhetoric, they were not on her good side. She also also heavily influenced the young uneducated tech that worked under her. I found the training program to be sadly lacking, as it was mostly self study, watching videos by myself in a room, or reading the notebook. The length of the dialysis sessions were determined by the nephrologist who sent them. But you are correct, the patients did not want to be there any longer than they had to be, and, several of them would often demand to be taken off early. The patients felt resentful and trapped, they had to be there and didn’t like it, so they could be a tough crowd sometimes. When I started, I thought I would be doing a lot of patient education, but since we were always rush, rush, rushed, we had very little time for that. I tried to stick that job out for a full year, but, when there was an opening at the hospital, I jumped ship and never looked back.

The patients if dialysis are the ones that REFUSED TO do low carb, no grains, moderate protein. I have worked with amazing Drs that tried to get their patients to stay well and off dialysis to no avail because the patient wanted to do what they wanted to do. The compliance in the dialysis world is so low it breaks the spirit of the healthcare workers as they have to watch a slow suicide of those they care for. They show up to dialysis eating junk, won’t stay for their prescribed treatment, and a multitude of other outrageous compliance issues. There’s enough blame to go around at this table yet it’s the most important piece.
