Give A Kidney, Save A Life
The Penn Transplant Institute offers a comprehensive kidney transplant program for patients suffering from end-stage kidney disease. Surgeons perform nearly 200 kidney transplants every year, making Penn's kidney transplant program the largest and most experienced kidney transplant program in the region.
In May of 2013, The Penn Transplant Institute became the 14th institution in the country and the first in the region to perform 5,000 kidney transplants.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has awarded the Penn Transplant Institute's Kidney Transplant program a Silver Level Award. Penn is the only transplant center in the region and one of a select group of programs in the nation to receive this distinction.
