Second Opinion for Kidney Transplant

About Second Opinion for Kidney Transplant

You have been told a kidney transplant is not possible, that your donor does not match, or that you do not qualify. Before you accept that answer, get a second opinion. Incompatibility is not always the final word — at PSRI, patients told transplant was impossible have received one through ABO incompatible kidney transplant protocols and swap kidney transplant programmes.

Submit your reports and receive a specialist review from our senior transplant team within 48 hours in most cases. PSRI has performed thousands of successful kidney transplants since 2004. *Terms & Conditions

What Does The Review Cover At PSRI?

Serum creatinine, eGFR, and dialysis adequacy to assess kidney failure severity and transplant urgency.
Blood group and HLA tissue matching between you and your potential donor.
Whether ABO incompatible kidney transplant desensitisation protocol applies to your donor-recipient profile.
Whether swap kidney transplant through PSRI's dedicated Swap Transplant Registry is a viable route.
Your overall surgical fitness including comorbidities, infection screening, and pre-transplant preparation needs.
For post-transplant patients: immunosuppression adequacy, rejection markers, biopsy findings, and graft function.

Kidney transplant second opinions are reviewed by a senior nephrology and urology transplant team. PSRI operates a dedicated Swap Transplant Registry, a 24x7 dialysis unit, and 3.0 Tesla MRI for advanced renal imaging.

What Options May Come Out Of A Kidney Transplant Second Opinion?

ABO Incompatible Kidney Transplant - If your donor has a different blood group, PSRI's ABO incompatible kidney transplant programme uses a desensitisation protocol to make transplant possible. This route is not offered at every centre.
Swap Kidney Transplant - If your donor is incompatible, PSRI's Swap Transplant Registry matches you with another incompatible pair so both recipients receive a compatible kidney.
Direct Matched Transplant - Where a compatible donor is available or a cadaveric option is being considered, the second opinion confirms your surgical fitness, pre-transplant preparation, and post-transplant monitoring plan.

When Should You Seek A Second Opinion For Kidney Transplant?

Most people opt for 2nd opinion for a reason. They want to know they are choosing the right step, at the right time, for the right reason. It also helps you understand the treatment choices in your case and what recovery may look like. Get a second opinion if:

Transplant not possible
ABO mismatch not addressed
Donor blood group mismatch
Swap option not discussed
No matching donor found
Second hospital differs
Transplant eligibility unclear
Transplant delayed repeatedly
Waitlist status unexplained
Post-transplant complications
Evaluation feels incomplete
Rejection episode recurring

NOTE: If you are experiencing sudden reduction in urine output, fever, graft site pain, or severe swelling after transplant, seek emergency care immediately. A second opinion supports planned decision-making and does not replace urgent transplant care.

"A Life-Saving Liver Transplant"

We travelled from Iraq to PSRI Hospital for my father’s liver transplant. My sister donated part of her liver, and the surgery was completed successfully. Today both of them are recovering well. We are truly grateful to the doctors at PSRI and the entire team for their care and support.

"Care That Costs Them Nothing"

Right now I’m standing outside PSRI Hospital in Delhi, where patients referred from Sikkim receive treatment without paying out of pocket. The hospital team explained that the Sikkim government supports the cost of care, and many patients have already been treated here, including kidney transplants and liver transplants. What stood out most was the smooth support for Sikkim patients, including Nepali-speaking nurses and a coordinator, so families feel understood and guided throughout their stay.

"Liver Transplant that Saved Life"

When we heard ‘liver cirrhosis,’ we were very scared. We visited other hospitals, but we still felt unsure. Then we met Dr. Manoj Gupta at PSRI Hospital. He explained everything in simple words and told us there was a solution. My wife donated part of her liver for me, the transplant went smoothly, and I recovered well and came home in about two weeks. Today I am healthy, and we are truly thankful to Dr. Manoj Gupta and the entire PSRI team.

"Back To A Healthy Life After Kidney Transplant"

I found out my kidneys were failing and it was a very stressful time. At PSRI Hospital, Dr. Sanjeev Saxena reviewed my reports and explained clearly that a kidney transplant was the best option. My father became my donor, the transplant was successful, and it has been over two years now. I feel healthy, I follow up regularly, and I am truly thankful to Dr. Sanjeev Saxena and the PSRI team.
