Transplant Advocacy

It’s our mission to assist every patient to do everything possible to receive a kidney transplant.

We make sure that every patient is well educated about kidney transplants and evaluate all of our patients. Every one of our patients who is interested and qualifies for transplantation receives our comprehensive support. Our aim is to ensure that each patient has an opportunity to attain, and maintain, a place on the transplant registry. Our goal is to have 100% of our patients and their families informed of the process and candidates continuously evaluated and supported for transplantation services.

We have a program which encourages our patients to eat a kidney-friendly diet, get appropriate exercise and integrate cardiovascular therapies into their routines. Our staff emphasizes self-dignity, planning to achieve personal goals and travel options. Our “total care” of the renal patient is very broad. The benefit is that more patients live a balanced, fit lifestyle that helps prepare them to do better with transplantation. It’s that simple.

Our support services include:

Assistance with transplant unit selection
Assistance with routine diagnostic work-up and enlistment
Attention to other medical conditions at an individual care management level
Clinic visits of Transplantation Service Programs
Coordination of a holistic approach to managing kidney disease
Caregiver and family member support

To further support our pro-transplantation commitment, Avantus Renal Therapy is affiliated with teaching hospitals around the U.S. and continues to align itself with national leaders in transplantation.
