The Kidney And Hypertension Group Transplants Six Patients in May 2014-What's Our Secret

That's right. We have transplanted 6 patients so far this May. 3 were PD patients, one was a hemodialysis patient, and 2 never had dialysis at all. One was 77. One was 24. One got a Kidney/Pancreas transplant, the other 5 got just a kidney. 4 were done at University of Miami, one at University of Florida, and 1 at Johns Hopkins. 4 were men, 2 were woman. 3 were black, and 3 were Caucasian. 4 were employed currently and 2 were not. All did well. In fact, except for being CKD6, they had little in common EXCEPT they were well prepared, on the list, and KEPT UP-TO-DATE on the list while they waited. So that's the secret. We get them ready and make sure they stay ready to get the call. Teamwork.We have our own Transplant Nephrologist to help toubleshoot problems, and we work well with all area and major national transplant centers. If you would like us to help you prepare and get a transplant call for an appt (954)771-3929. Ask for Jessica. Oh, one more thing. This IS NOT our best month ever. In March of 2012, we transplanted 7 patients in a month. But, heh, the month's not over yet! :)
