Monique Borlace is a Nephrologist based in Adelaide, SA. She looks after people who are dealing with kidney conditions, especially long-term kidney issues. Kidney health can affect everyday life in lots of ways, and she focuses on helping patients feel more steady and informed as things change over time.
In her work, Monique commonly treats Chronic Kidney Disease. This is when the kidneys don’t work as well as they should, for months or years. Some people notice symptoms early, while others find out after a check-up or blood test. Over time, the plan often needs to be reviewed, because kidney function can slowly shift, and the best next steps can be different from person to person.
Monique also works with people who have peritonitis and secondary peritonitis. Peritonitis is an inflammation or infection in the lining of the abdomen, and it can feel quite serious and uncomfortable. Secondary peritonitis usually happens because of another problem first. At times, this can come on suddenly, so prompt assessment and clear treatment steps matter a lot. In many cases, treatment also means working out what caused it in the first place, not just managing symptoms.
Day to day, she keeps things practical and grounded. Appointments are a chance to talk through what’s going on, what tests might be needed, and what treatment can look like. She also helps people understand the “why” behind kidney and infection care, without making it too complicated. Care like this often involves more than one kind of support, and Monique aims to keep the plan organised so patients know what to expect next.
Monique Borlace works in Adelaide and helps patients manage kidney problems across a range of situations, from longer-term Chronic Kidney Disease to urgent episodes involving peritonitis. If you’re looking for a nephrologist in Adelaide who keeps the conversation clear and steady, she’s there to help.
