Service · Definitive care

When dialysis isn't the answer.

Workup, donor evaluation, surgery coordination, and lifelong post-transplant care — under one nephrology, urology, and transplant team. No outside referrals.

What it is

Transplant is a marathon. We walk it with you.

A kidney transplant is the definitive treatment for end-stage kidney disease — longer life, better quality of life, freedom from dialysis. But the path is long: evaluation, donor matching, surgery, immunosuppression, lifelong follow-up.

Most networks split this across hospitals. You see a nephrologist here, a urologist there, a transplant surgeon somewhere else. Records get lost. Protocols clash. Decisions stall.

At Renacare, it's one team. Your nephrologist evaluates you. Our urologist and transplant team operate. Your nephrologist follows you for the rest of your life. Same record. Same standard. Same people.

"Nephrology, urology, and kidney transplant — under one team. That's the rarest thing in Indian healthcare."
Kidney Transplant Workup & Care
How we do it differently

One team. Whole journey.

From eligibility to the rest of your life, you stay with the same kidney unit.

Pre-transplant

Workup done in-house

Cardiac clearance, infection screen, immunology, urology evaluation, psychiatric assessment — all coordinated through one nephrologist, on one timeline.

Donor evaluation

Family-friendly, ethical, thorough

Donor workup follows strict national protocols. Blood group, HLA match, kidney function, scans, psychosocial review. We never short-cut donor safety.

Surgery & ICU

Transplant team you trust

Operations are done at partner transplant hospitals by surgeons we work with daily. Post-op ICU and immediate recovery are managed by our nephrology team.

Lifelong follow-up

The same doctor for years

Immunosuppression dosing, rejection monitoring, infection surveillance, lifestyle counselling — your transplant nephrologist sees you for life. Same record, same person.

What to expect

From candidacy to recovery.

Every transplant pathway is different. This is the typical Renacare workflow.

01

Eligibility consultation

Your nephrologist reviews whether transplant is the right next step. Honest, individualised — we will tell you if dialysis is the better option.

02

Recipient workup

Comprehensive evaluation: cardiac, infectious, immunological, psychological. 2–6 weeks depending on findings. You stay on dialysis through workup.

03

Donor evaluation & surgery

Family donor assessed in parallel. Once cleared and ethics committee approves, surgery is scheduled. Average stay 7–10 days.

04

Post-transplant follow-up

Weekly visits initially, then monthly, then quarterly. Immunosuppression dosing, labs, infection surveillance. Lifetime relationship.

Frequently asked

Questions worth asking.

Before you start a treatment anywhere — these are the questions to ask. We've answered ours.

Am I a transplant candidate?
Most patients with end-stage kidney disease are, but it depends on age, heart function, infections, and other organ health. A single consultation with our nephrologist can tell you within 1–2 weeks.
Do you do the surgery in-house?
Surgery is performed at partner transplant centres by surgeons we work with closely. Pre-op workup, ICU recovery, and lifelong follow-up are all run by the Renacare nephrology team — same record, same people.
How long is the waiting time for a transplant?
If you have a willing, healthy family donor, surgery can usually happen within 6–8 weeks of starting workup. Deceased donor lists are far longer — our team will discuss every pathway with you.
What's the post-transplant follow-up like?
Weekly for the first month, monthly for 6 months, then quarterly. You'll be on immunosuppression for life — we manage dosing, side effects, infection risk, and rejection surveillance.
