At Loyola Medicine, we're committed to providing the best possible care for our transplant patients, and that includes educating the community about the life-saving option of living kidney donation. I'm excited to share a new video featuring two of our experts: Transplant Coordinator Megan Parker, RN, and Kidney Transplant Surgeon RAQUEL GARCIA-ROCA. In this video, Megan and Dr. Garcia-Roca discuss the critical importance of patients being their own advocates throughout the kidney donation process. They also highlight the numerous benefits of receiving a kidney from a living donor compared to a deceased donor, including better long-term outcomes and shorter wait times. This is a valuable resource for anyone considering becoming a living donor, anyone on the transplant waiting list, or anyone who simply wants to learn more about kidney transplantation.
