Kidney Donation Awareness: Process, Eligibility, Risks & Benefits

PACE Hospitals

Listen to

A selfless act that has the power to save and change lives is kidney donation. Many people suffer from kidney failure and rely on dialysis or a transplant to survive. Donating one healthy kidney gives another person a chance to live a healthier life, while the donor can continue to lead an everyday life with proper care. It's critical to undergo a medical evaluation, understand the risks, and make an informed decision.


In this episode of the Kidney Donation Podcast, we explore everything you need to know about kidney donation, from the different types (living vs. deceased) and eligibility criteria for donors, to busting common myths with real facts.


Join the PACE Hospitals Podcast with Dr Vishwambhar Nath, Senior Consultant Urologist & Renal Transplant Surgeon at PACE Hospitals, Hyderabad, India, to understand everything about kidney donation.
