Personalized assistance with travel, donor coordination, and post-operative care.
A kidney transplant is needed when your kidneys fail (e.g., due to chronic kidney disease or injury), and dialysis isn’t enough or isn’t preferred. It replaces a failed kidney with a healthy donor kidney to restore function. Your doctor will recommend it based on your kidney function and overall health.
Tests (e.g., blood work, imaging) ensure donor compatibility and plan the surgery.
General anesthesia keeps you unconscious and pain-free during the procedure.
Surgeons place the donor kidney in your lower abdomen, connecting its blood vessels and ureter.
The incision is closed, and you’re monitored for kidney function post-surgery.
The surgery typically takes 3-4 hours. Your transplant team will explain the process in detail.
Kidney transplants are generally successful, but risks include:
Rejection of the donor kidney
Infection at the surgical site
Blood clots or bleeding
Side effects from anti-rejection drugs
Complications occur in less than 10% of cases. SB Medical Travels partners with top transplant centers to reduce risks and ensure success.
Proper preparation is essential for a successful transplant:
Fast for 8-12 hours before surgery under general anesthesia
Adjust medications as advised; dialysis may continue until surgery
Pack loose clothing and plan for a longer hospital stay
Arrange support for post-surgery care and transportation
SB Medical Travels offers a comprehensive pre-surgery checklist and assistance with donor coordination.
5-10 days, depending on kidney function and complications.
Rest and monitoring; avoid heavy activity while on anti-rejection meds.
Gradual return to light activities as kidney function stabilizes.
Most resume normal life with ongoing medical follow-ups.
Our team will coordinate your recovery, including medication management and follow-up care.
Pain is carefully managed during and after kidney transplant surgery:
General anesthesia ensures no pain is felt during the procedure.
Moderate abdominal pain; managed with painkillers.
Pain decreases within weeks; mild discomfort may linger.
Minimal to no pain once healed; focus shifts to kidney health.
Our partner hospitals prioritize pain management, and we’ll ensure your recovery is as comfortable as possible.
