Steve and Linda Oikawa - Why Choose Home Hemodialysis?
In this video, Steve Oikawa explains why home hemodialysis is a good option for patients living with chronic kidney disease.
In the freedom of your own home, you can plan your dialysis sessions whenever they fit into your schedule.
Steve prefers this much more than the alternative, which would see him going to the hospital multiple times every week with very little flexibility.
The flexibility of home hemodialysis is what won Steve and his wife, Linda over. It lets them live their lives the way they want to.
The Scarborough Health Network has sponsored the creation of over a hundred educational videos for type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease.

In 2022, this YouTube channel was rebranded as Manitoba Moonshot.
The Manitoba Moonshot is a front-row seat watching one Canadian family trying to end type 2 diabetes.
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.
