I had my Kidney transplant on December 4, 2020. My experience was great! The pre transplant coordinator had to be pushed a little. The living donor coordinator (Veronica) is an angel! She worked with me and my donor (nephew) through the entire process. You must be an advocate for yourself regardless of where you go. Find a place that responds to you. Don't expect to be waited on.
