Living Donor Services

The living donor office arranges all testing and consultations for the potential living donor. Clients are contacted regularly to make sure they are well informed during the process. The donor and recipient teams are kept separate to keep the donor's details private.

It takes 1–3 months to go through the evaluation process.

The living donor will spend less than a week in the hospital after the donation surgery and will need to be off work for 4-8 weeks for recovery.


Eligibility

People cannot be a donor if they have the following health issues:

  • diabetes
  • obesity
  • autoimmune disorders
  • cancer
  • already had an organ transplant
