The 10 Dialysis Commandments
By Tifiro Cook
Tifiro Cook is a two-time kidney transplant recipient who has also thrived on dialysis for over a decade. Learn the essential commandments that everyone should know if they are or have a loved on on dialysis.
Meet Your Coach
Tifiro Cook is a two-time kidney transplant survivor who spent over a decade on both hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis — all while maintaining a healthy, fit lifestyle. Through that journey, he recognized a critical gap: patients need clear, practical guidance to truly take control of their health.
As an American Association of Kidney Patients certified kidney coach, Coach Cook brings over 30 years of lived and professional experience to every client relationship. As a keynote speaker at National Kidney Foundation Symposiums for over five years, he has collaborated with the National Kidney Foundation, Ohio State University, and Johns Hopkins University Hospital to advance the standard of care for kidney disease patients across the country.
Author of The 10 Dialysis Commandments, Coach Cook walks alongside patients with Stage 3–5 kidney disease — giving them the tools to not just survive, but to thrive!

A Coach For…
Feeling overwhelmed on dialysis?
Dialysis Coach
We will coach you on how to thrive on dialysis.
Tifiro Cook knows exactly how overwhelming dialysis can feel — because he has lived it for nearly 20 years.
While going through this, he researched ways to improve his experience and developed techniques that allowed him to maintain a healthy, active lifestyle.
He then spent 15 years with the YNOTT? Foundation (Youth Needing Organ and Tissue Transplants), working with pediatric kidney disease patients in need of transplants — and now, his goal is to bring that knowledge directly to you.
Are you in need of a kidney transplant?
Transplant Coach
We will help you to get on and maintain your spot on multiple transplant lists.
Many CKD patients don't realize that strict requirements must be met to get listed — and that without meeting them, you can be on the list without truly being eligible to receive a transplant.
Tifiro Cook has navigated this process firsthand, having received two kidney transplants at Ohio State and Johns Hopkins, and has since helped numerous clients successfully get their own transplants.
How to maintain a healthy lifestyle with kidney disease?
Accountability Coach
We will help you to reinforce healthy habits for your nutrition and exercise.
Tifiro understands firsthand how challenging it can be to stay on track with your health while managing kidney disease.
As an experienced personal trainer, he knows that lasting change comes from building one healthy habit at a time — not overhauling everything at once. He will work alongside you to create a realistic, sustainable routine that supports both your nutrition and your body.
Struggling to understand what your doctor is saying?
Medical Coach
We will bridge the gap between your you and your doctor.
Living with kidney disease doesn't have to mean navigating complex medical information such as lab results and treatment decisions alone.
Tifiro Cook has been managing kidney disease for nearly 30 years and has worked closely with doctors who helped him understand the medical side of this journey.
Now, he works alongside you and your medical team to help you understand your lab results and incorporate your doctor's recommendations into your everyday life
