Body Paragraph Title

What is a Kidney Function Test?

A Kidney Function Test measures how effectively your kidneys filter waste from your blood. It typically involves a simple blood test to assess key markers such as creatinine, urea and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and may include a urine test to check for protein. At Mayfield Clinic in Loughton, this test is performed by our private GPs who explain what the results mean in plain terms and discuss any needed next steps.

Monitoring kidney function is important for people with high blood pressure, diabetes, or those taking medications that could affect the kidneys. Early detection helps prevent complications and allows for timely treatment or lifestyle adjustments. If you are looking for a kidney test UK or a private kidney function check, our clinicians provide clear guidance and personalised care.
