Overview
A Renal Transplant Surgeon is a highly specialized medical professional who performs kidney transplant surgeries, replacing diseased or non-functional kidneys with healthy donor organs.

Their role is vital in managing end-stage renal disease (ESRD) cases where dialysis is no longer effective. They are also involved in pre-surgical assessments and long-term follow-up of transplant recipients. Their precision and decision-making directly impact patient survival and quality of life.
