Kidney Transplant Center in Ahmedabad — Expert Living Donor Surgery by Dr. Prarthan Joshi
End-stage kidney disease is a life-changing diagnosis — but kidney transplantation offers the best possible outcome for eligible patients. At Zydus Hospitals, Ahmedabad, Dr. Prarthan Joshi — M.S., M.Ch. (Urology) — leads a comprehensive kidney transplant programme providing expert surgical care for both living donors and recipients, backed by the full multidisciplinary support of one of Ahmedabad’s most advanced hospitals.
Why Transplant Outperforms Dialysis
Kidney transplantation consistently outperforms dialysis in quality of life, life expectancy, and long-term outcomes for eligible patients. A successful transplant frees patients from the rigid dialysis schedule, restores near-normal kidney function, and allows a return to full active daily life.
Living Donor Kidney Transplant
Most transplants at the kidney transplant center in Ahmedabad involve living donors — typically a family member or close friend. Living donor transplantation offers better long-term outcomes, shorter waiting time, and the ability to schedule surgery at the optimal time for both donor and recipient. The donor operation is performed laparoscopically — most donors return home within 3 days and to full normal activity within 4 weeks.
Donor Safety — What the Evidence Shows
Carefully evaluated, healthy kidney donors have life expectancy equivalent to the general non-donor population. The remaining kidney compensates remarkably well. With regular monitoring, donors maintain excellent long-term kidney health for decades after donation.
Recipient Surgery and Post-Transplant Care
The recipient surgery places the donor kidney in the lower abdomen, connecting it to the recipient’s blood vessels and bladder. Most patients see the new kidney functioning within the first few days. Post-transplant care includes immunosuppression management, kidney function monitoring, and long-term surveillance — all coordinated at Zydus Hospitals.
