Doctor's Advice :60 Radio

Do not air before May 15, 2004
No Kill Date

SFX DOCTOR'S OFFICE AMBIENCE
PATIENT Okay then, Dr. Carter, thanks a lot. I'll see you next time.
DOCTOR

Alright, Mr. Stewart. Now remember... keep taking your pills...every day!

(PAUSE)

Mr. Stewart is one of my patients. He's got high blood pressure, so we talked about how that also puts him at risk for kidney disease.

Kidney disease doesn't have any real warning signs.

But if you have high blood pressure or diabetes, or a family member with kidney failure, you're at risk.

So now Mr. Stewart gets simple testing done for kidney disease when he comes in.

He's lucky - and smart. Because if you don't get checked for kidney disease now, you could be on the waiting list for a kidney transplant later.
