Kidney Transplants

Remarkable advances in kidney transplantation enable us to offer our patients encouragement and good reason for optimism at Saint Mary's Kidney Transplant Program, located in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Kidney transplantation is a treatment option for persons with end-stage kidney disease.

Since the program began in 1973, our specialists have performed over 1200 kidney transplants using both live donor and procured kidneys. Now, one of the latest technological innovations, laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy, is creating more opportunities for live kidney donation at Saint Mary's.

Saint Mary's kidney transplant program is the third largest program in the state of Michigan and has regularly had the highest success rates in the state. We are the only Grand Rapids hospital that offers this service for adult patients. To find out more call Toll Free: (800) 968-1770.
