Consult Our Transplant Team
Donor safety is our absolute highest priority. Before a living donor is approved, they must undergo a rigorous, multi-phase medical and psychological evaluation to ensure they are perfectly healthy and fit for surgery.
Kidney transplantation in India is strictly governed by the Transplantation of Human Organs Act (THOA). Our administrative team assists your family through every step of this rigorous legal framework to ensure total compliance and ethical practice.
Near Relatives: Parents, children, siblings, spouses, grandparents, and grandchildren can donate with relatively streamlined paperwork, requiring proof of relationship via DNA profiling and legal affidavits.
Distant Relatives / Altruistic Donors: Donations out of pure love and affection (non-commercial) by distant relatives or friends require thorough vetting and approval by the State Authorization Committee to rule out any commercial trading, which is strictly prohibited by law.
Decades of clinical data prove that donating a kidney does not change a person's life expectancy or increase their risk of kidney disease. The remaining kidney naturally compensates, taking on the full workload.
Dr. Kataria performs Laparoscopic Donor Nephrectomy, a minimally invasive keyhole surgery to remove the donor kidney. This advanced technique results in significantly less pain, minimal scarring, and a much faster recovery. Most donors are walking the next day and are discharged within 3 to 4 days.
A living donor transplant is a complex but incredibly rewarding journey. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Kataria to discuss compatibility, the legal process, and to begin your medical evaluation.
