We honour members and colleagues whose work has helped shape kidney care, research and education. This obituary archive celebrates the lives and contributions of many of the leading figures in nephrology, alongside the often unsung individuals whose dedication helped establish and develop kidney services across the UK.
Wherever possible, we have included a full obituary celebrating each person’s life and achievements. We also recognise individuals from the UK and internationally who, although not UKKA members, have made significant contributions to the development of nephrology in the UK. Where a full obituary is not available, a brief summary of their contribution is provided.
If you would like to contribute an obituary, photographs or additional information, or suggest someone for inclusion, please contact John Feehally
