Living Donor Criteria 

General criteria

Living kidney donors can, but do not need to be, related to the person who will receive the kidney. The donor must be anatomically able to donate a kidney as determined by a CT scan review. Our staff will discuss with you in detail the donor process and each of the steps involved.

All living kidney donors must be at least age 18. The donor must be physically and emotionally healthy and competent to make decisions.
