Hi I want to share with you what had happened to my brother, he did dialysis for 6 years.
Israel National Transplant Center, told us that we should be in waiting list, and the situation was intolerable, so we began to look for a solution abroad. One of our reviews of visiting the hospital, we met with a transplant recipient abroad was very pleased and gave us a contact phone. From a contact man we had our required information and also got phones numbers of patients who underwent transplantation in the same place and were very satisfied. We met with the contact man and decide to do transplantation, so we flew to the country were satisfied patients underwent a transplant
Everything was well organized by professionals they accompanied us all along with a lot of sensitivity and attention to detail and concern.
My brother pass successfully kidney underwent transplantation. We returned to our country happy.
And I would love to share with you or your friends who need a transplant more details.
Happy to help, please contact me!
