Black Health launched a new Kidney Disease Channel.

Roslyn Daniels, President, Black Health Matters adds, “We are especially excited to add a kidney disease channel with an emphasis on focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), a rare kidney condition that is the leading cause of nephrotic syndrome (a kidney disorder) to our platform since African Americans are at a high risk to be affected by this disease.”

A special highlight of this new channel is an upcoming Facebook Live event with renowned Nephrologist, Kirk Campbell, MD of New York’s Mount Sinai Hospital.

Dr. Campbell will offer his thoughts and insights on kidney disease and its growing impact on the Black community.

This event will also kick-off a special 6-week FSGS Friday’s newsletter that will feature articles and videos to address those at risk, patients and their caregivers with empowering kidney disease health and wellness information.
