BMC’s Yawkey building doors are now closed as an entrance as part of our ongoing efforts to enhance our campus and provide you with the best clinical care.

All patients and visitors on our main campus must enter our hospital via Shapiro, Menino, or Moakley buildings, where they will be greeted by team members at a new centralized check-in desk before continuing to the hospital. We are excited to welcome you and appreciate your patience as we improve our facilities.

Kidney Transplant Surgery

Living Kidney Donation Program

Select your language:

Living donor kidney transplantation is an alternative to receiving a kidney from a deceased donor. A kidney transplant from a living donor typically has a much higher success rate, a reduced risk of rejection, and can result in a longer lifespan for the recipient. At BMC’s Living Donor Program, we help both donors and recipients through the process of this donation, with a focus on helping donors as they make this incredible gift.
