Join us in this emotional video as we talk to a family, the father in which, recently got a life-saving kidney transplant in India. We talked to Mr. Earl Sorrells who was suffering from kidney failure for years. He did get dialysis for a year but knowing that it was not enough of a treatment, he agreed to his daughter’s offer of a kidney.
She is the main reason why Earl’s living donor kidney transplant in India was a success. Sadly, doctors in the USA didn't want to do this surgery that could save his life. Their reasons included his age of 74 years, past cancers and the resulting complications. They were not wrong; this was a risky surgery.
But thankfully, the daughter decided to get kidney transplant surgery in India. Unlike the surgeons at home, who did only 20 transplants a year, Dr Shafiq Ahmed of BLK Max, the surgeon we recommended had done hundreds! Because of this reason, not only did he have the experience but also the confidence to perform Earl’s risky surgery.
