Dr Kenneth Xie

Dr Kenneth Xie is a Consultant Nephrologist who helps people understand their kidney health and feel confident about their treatment plan. He cares for a wide range of kidney conditions, including chronic kidney disease, blood and protein in the urine, high blood pressure, dialysis care, and kidney transplantation.
