UAMS has been wonderful to me. I was listed 7 years, but did get my transplant 3 years ago. They still follow me, I get monthly labs, always respond to my messages in MyChart and I feel very secure in their care.
My son recently received a kidney transplant at UAMS and the Doctors, Staff, Nurses and everyone involved made his procedure and stay comfortable and a upbeat attitude make for a pleasant experience.. Top Ratings!!!!

Compared to other kidney transplant centers in Arkansas, UAMS Medical Center generally offers slower than average wait times for blood type O patients.
