Austin Urology Institute featured in Kidney Transplant Program at NAMC

December 8, 2012

Austin Urology Institute and Dr. Koushik Shaw were recently featured on KXAN-NBC Austin for their work with the North Austin Medical Center Renal Transplant Department. Kidney Transplantation saves lives.  We perform the procedure utilizing the latest in laparoscopic, minimally invasive technique to complete the entire procedure through small incisions. Most kidney donors are able to leave the hospital within 48 hours after surgery.  Studies show that the effects of renal donation are minimal, and that compared to age matched controls, are expected to live as long, if not longer, than non-donors.
