Kidney Transplant
When your kidneys stop working effectively, a kidney transplant can be the key to a longer, fuller life.
Memorial Transplant Institute is the only center in Broward County — and one of only two programs in South Florida — to offer kidney transplants to both children and adults. Our dedicated team offers highly specialized care, providing the expertise and support you need during the transplant process and for the rest of your life.
