Hi, Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum.
Your father is suffering from either Acute or Chronic Kidney disease. If it is chronic he definitely needs immediate dialysis and subsequent kidney transplantation. If it is acute, treating the cause will reduce the Creatinine level. Diet does not improve its level.Medication has to be taken , if you leave it it will do a lot of harm //////
Speak to your Doctor.
Good Luck.
