If you're considering kidney or pancreas transplantation for your patient, consider the Upstate Transplant team.
The pandemic has not aected our service to you or your patients. Over the past year, we started an expedited listing
process and increased overall transplants by 50% and live donor transplants by nearly 80%. We are committed to providing
a timely work up and keeping referring physicians in the loop every step of the way. More than half of our kidney patients
have been transplanted within two years of listing — a relatively short wait — and our program shows excellent outcomes.
Our accessible Syracuse location is an added benet, and patients in Central New York are closer to home.
Our dedicated team oers hope for an improved quality of life for patients with end-stage renal disease. In the region,
we have the largest number pancreas transplants of patients with diabetes and oer the only pediatric transplant program.
