Living Donors

Living donors are healthy individuals who voluntarily donate an organ or tissue, such as a kidney or a part of their liver, to someone in need of a transplant. These donations occur while the donor is alive and aim to save or significantly improve the recipient’s health. The process involves careful medical evaluation to ensure the donor’s safety, and the organs are typically matched based on compatibility. Living donation can reduce waiting times and often leads to better transplant success rates, offering hope to patients with organ failure.
