Kidney transplantation is considered the best long-term treatment option for patients with chronic kidney disease who are either on or approaching dialysis. At these free Patient Symposia, our nationally respected and experienced team will address questions that you may have about kidney transplantation. Topics include:
- living donor programs that can decrease wait time
- kidney transplantation from donors once considered “incompatible”
- advances in donor and recipient robotic surgery
- social, emotional and financial considerations
- personal experiences from kidney donors and recipients
The first step is to attend a Patient Symposium or make an appointment for an educational session with our staff. To learn more, please contact Stacey Cooke at 973-322-2285 or at stcooke@barnabashealth.org or complete our online registration.
