If you can invest a lot, then you can start at your premises buying good quality dialysis machines. Make a visit to Madras Institute of Nephrology or Guest Hospital or MR Hospital and these Hospitals provide a quality dialysis service to people in Chennai and where you can find variety of machines and the dialysers used.
If your investment will be less, then try to go with a established hospital. Always keep in your mind, doctors are more business (money) minded than a hard-core business men. They may try to suck everything out from you than supporting you (Sorry to say but it is the truth).
In India normally people re-use dialysers. Please find a good vendor of the machines with good service back-up. Trivitron Medical Systems is one such organisation. But ask the supplier of the machines and see that he is handling the same brand atleast for 2 to 3 years.

Liver Dialysis for the first time in the country
In continuation with its policy of bringing the best healthcare facilities to the country, Apollo Hospitals Group, Asia�s most trusted healthcare provider, launched a state-of-the-art Liver Unit at Apollo Hospitals, Chennai today. A first-of-its-kind initiative in the country, the Liver Unit will provide treatment facilities for all kinds of liver problems and would have a stand alone Intensive Care Unit. A unique feature of the Liver Unit will be the soon to be installed Liver Dialysis Facility, which will be available for the first time in India.
The Liver Unit was dedicated to the people by Dr. Prathap C Reddy � Chairman, Apollo Hospitals Group. The inaugural ceremony was followed by a discussion on Liver diseases in India and the treatment facilities available for the same. The session was attended by Hepatologists from the city and was addressed by specialists from Apollo Hospitals, Chennai and Delhi.
Speaking at the occasion, Dr. Prathap C Reddy said, �The newly opened Liver Unit is a very valuable addition to Apollo Hospitals and to Chennai�s healthcare infrastructure. It will offer quality healthcare facilities at a fraction of the international cost and through its Liver Dialysis facility, which will be available for the first time in the country, it will ensure that patients get the benefit of the best international facilities in India itself.�
He further added, �Apollo Hospitals has been the pioneer in treatment of Liver diseases and our centre in Delhi, Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, has already been providing Liver Transplant facilities for over five years now. Indraprastha Apollo is also the only center in the entire South and Central Asian Region to offer facilities for Live Donor Liver Transplantation.�
Apollo Hospital�s Liver Unit will offer several benefits to people. A stand-alone unit, it will have 30 beds, sophisticated equipment for treatment and a fully equipped Intensive Care Unit (ICU). It will have a dedicated protocol for handling cases, ensuring that the treatment process is streamlined. The medical teams will work in close coordination and every week there will be a �Grand Round� by all the key specialists to assess the progress made by each patient. This is aimed at understanding every individual patient�s requirement in the best possible manner and offer instant solutions to facilitate quick recuperation.
Another noteworthy feature of the Liver Unit is the soon to be installed Liver Dialysis Facility. To be available for the first time in the country, it will be similar to Renal (Kidney) Dialysis and will help patients with severe liver disease to get stabilized before they undergo surgery. It will also help in de-toxifying any negative agents in the body of the patient.
The Unit will gradually increase its service delivery and will also start liver transplant programs soon. It will offer treatment facilities for all kind of liver complications and would be a one-stop-shop for any disease of the liver.
The Apollo Hospitals Enterprises Ltd. (AHEL) was formed with the merger of IHCL (Indian Hospitals Corporation Ltd.), DHCL (Deccan Hospitals Corporation Ltd.) and OSHL (Om Sindoor Hotels Ltd.). The enterprise today comprises a network of 39 hospitals, owning and managing over 5,000 hospital beds, 10 primary clinics and over 100 pharmacies, making it the single largest healthcare provider in Asia. The group has an aggregated turnover of over Rs. 500 crores. Apart from the core area of hospitals, the group has also diversified into various related avenues including e-health, franchising, IT & internet based technology, telemedicine, virtual medical university, education and training, home healthcare, pharmacy retailing, hospital project management and health insurance.
