Dr. Paul Tam - What Is A Nephrologist?
In this video, Dr. Paul Tam of the Scarborough Health Network explains what he does as a nephrologist.
Nephrologists are kidney specialists.
They monitor the functions of the kidneys and treat patients with chronic kidney disease with dialysis, which acts as an artificial kidney.
The Scarborough Health Network has sponsored the creation of over a hundred educational videos for type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease.

This channel will highlight stories from the Lautt family, ask tough questions about access to health care for marginalized communities, and feature exclusive interviews with Canadians from all walks of life — especially those living with type 2 diabetes.
