How we selected these doctors
A doctor appears on this page when their listed specialty maps to Nephrology and their profile names kidney transplant (or a matching term) among the procedures they perform. Doctors are not ranked by a proprietary "best" score — the order follows years of listed experience (highest first), the same field shown on each doctor's profile. This page does not display aggregate star ratings.

kidney transplant is listed among the doctor's procedures or areas of expertise, using matching terms where appropriate.
Hospital affiliation
The doctor is currently affiliated with a recognised hospital in the GAF directory. Hospital details and availability can change, so confirm them before booking.
Professional experience
