Transplant Programs

Kidney Transplant Overview

There are many reasons why a person's kidneys fail to function properly. Whatever the reason for failure, there are treatment options available and each patient eventually will have to choose what is best for him/her. The current treatments options are:

  • Hemodialysis- treatments done in clinic setting-usually 3 times per week
  • Peritoneal Dialysis- daily treatments done at home-usually 7 days per week
  • Transplantation- transplant surgery, then anti-rejection medications daily

Each treatment choice should be discussed with your kidney doctor (nephrologist) so that together you can make a decision on what will be best for you.
