About the unit
Borders General Hospital has a small modern satellite unit. Patients are usually admitted to Edinburgh Royal Infirmary if in-patient treatment is required. Sometimes more straight forward medical problems are dealt with locally. A twice weekly general nephrology clinic/ transplant follow-up clinic and monthly community dilaysis clinics (peritoneal dialysis and home haemodialysis) are located there.
