This week marks World Kidney Day 2026 — a global reminder of how important our kidneys are to overall health.

In fact, a significant number of Australians are living with kidney damage or reduced kidney function and may not even know it. Your kidneys play a vital role in filtering waste from the body, regulating blood pressure and maintaining healthy fluid levels. Conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes and family history can increase your risk.

If you have any concerns about your kidney health, contact Waurn Ponds Medical Centre to book an appointment with one of our caring doctors: https://www.waurnpondsmc.com.au/

As we conclude World Mental Health Month, here are a few thoughts to ponder:
Myth: “Mental health issues are rare.”
Fact: 1 in 5 Australians experience a mental health condition each year… it’s more common than you think!
Myth: “People with mental health conditions can just ‘snap out of it.’”
Fact: Mental health conditions aren’t a choice. Support and treatment help recovery.
Myth: “Seeking help is a sign of weakness.”
Fact: Asking for help is brave and important. Support is strength, not weakness.
