Mayo Clinic Minute: Breaking barriers for patients who need kidney transplants

A multidisciplinary team of Mayo Clinic transplant surgeons, nephrologists, dietitians and endocrinologists is helping remove obesity as a barrier to kidney transplantation. Dr. Aleksandra Kukla, a Mayo Clinic nephrologist, helped create the program, which can sometimes include bariatric surgery, the most effective and durable weight loss method. Some patients are able to be listed for kidney transplant just two months after bariatric surgery. But for many, the program is offering them something they may not have had before: hope, that they can receive a kidney transplant in the future. ____________________________________________ For the safety of its patients, staff and visitors, Mayo Clinic has strict masking policies in place.
