Over the past decade, Aurora St. Luke’s Medical Center has experienced a significant decline in its kidney transplant waiting list, decreasing from over 350 patients in 2014 to under 200 in 2024. However, this reduction is largely attributed to patients being removed from the list due to medical deterioration during the prolonged wait. Despite performing an average of fewer than 50 cadaveric kidney transplants annually, the center's transplant volume has not kept pace with the demand.
Compared to other kidney transplant centers in Wisconsin, Aurora St. Luke's Medical Center generally offers slower than average wait times for blood type O patients.
