Our transplant care team includes nurses specifically trained in post-operative recovery to ensure every recipient gets the attentive and expert support needed for a successful recovery. We specialize in various types of kidney transplants using advanced protocols and proven methodologies.

Types of Kidney Transplants Performed:
  • Deceased Donor Transplant: Kidneys retrieved from brain-dead donors under strict ethical and medical guidelines.
  • Living Donor Transplant: From a healthy, compatible relative or close family member.
  • Paired Kidney Exchange (SWAP): Involving two or more donor-recipient pairs from different families.
  • ABO Incompatible Transplant: Performed between donors and recipients with mismatched blood groups using specialized treatment approaches.

Our kidney transplant program is supported by an experienced and collaborative team of:

  • Kidney Transplant Surgeons
  • Nephrologists
  • Urologists
  • Vascular Surgeons
  • Pulmonologists
  • Anaesthetists
  • Cardiologists
  • Gastroenterologists
  • Haemato-Oncologists
  • Microbiologists
  • Dental Surgeons
  • Gynaecologists (for female patients)
  • Clinical Dieticians
  • Transplant Nurses
  • Transplant Coordinators
  • Other skilled support staff

Every transplant at Sudha Multispeciality Hospital is approached with precision, compassion, and a commitment to long-term health.

Before undergoing a kidney transplant, patients and their families are guided through every stage of the process by our experienced transplant coordinators. This includes personalized counselling sessions to help them understand the procedure, expectations, and post-operative care. Each patient is then thoroughly assessed by a panel of specialists to minimize risks and increase the chances of a smooth and successful transplant.

We also follow an organized system for organ allocation. Patients waiting for deceased donor kidneys are registered through TRANSTAN, the authorized state-level coordination body. Allocation is done transparently, based on availability, medical urgency, and compatibility, in coordination with other approved hospitals across the network.
