GFR is often used by the doctors to calculate the patientâs kidney functions and low GFR is often accompanied by high creatinine and low renal functions. Therefore it is recommended that kidney disease patients should ask their doctors for the GFR levels besides creatinine levels. For kidney disease patients, lowering high creatinine is not the ultimate goal. That is why dialysis can not cure kidney disease even though it is effective at lowering high creatinine levels.
