@jeanice Your question is a good one, and honestly I don't have a good answer. I have seen renal dieticians associated with dialysis centers, or some large medical groups, but even when I was first diagnosed, there was no dietician to turn to. I had to become my own detective, and even passed on my new-found education to the dietician at my medical group. Because kidney disease patients have specific things to watch for, it can certainly make daily meal fixing a challenge, which @kamama94 is helping us all with, with her cookbooks!

In the end, we have to be in charge of our disease, and for me, knowing that I have the sayso based on my own tests, and personalising my diet, makes me feel stronger!
