Welcome to the Kidney and Pancreas Transplant program at Stanford Health Care.
Here are some tips to prepare for your upcoming evaluation for a kidney transplant. At the bottom of this page, you will see links to information on transplants.
Please click on the links to read the information before your appointment.
The waiting time for a deceased donor in the Bay Area is very long. You can shorten your time to a transplant if you have a living donor.
If you cannot make this appointment, we ask you to contact us at least 1 week before your appointment. You can change it to a more convenient time.
We look forward to seeing you.
