Kidney Transplant Program

Our Kidney Transplant Team

The University of Toledo Medical Center Transplant Team has more than 80 years of service and is dedicated to providing exceptional patient care.

With the organizational efforts of our transplant coordinators, our team of nephrologists, surgeons, nurses, dietitians, pharmacists, social workers, and financial counselors, we work with patients and their families to provide educational and supportive services.
