UW Medicine Kidney Transplant Clinic at Anchorage

Alaskan patients with kidney disease may encounter unforeseen challenges, but traveling for care should not be one of them. Along with our full suite of UW Medicine Transplant services in Seattle, our Anchorage satellite clinic provides innovative, comprehensive care for patients seeking evaluation for kidney transplantation. Additionally, Alaska patients can be supported by telemedicine appointments with our kidney transplant physicians.

UW Medicine is the region's most experienced kidney/pancreas transplant team. Our team has performed the most combined kidney/pancreas transplants in the Northwest. We hold a five-tier rating by the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients. 95 percent of our kidney recipients have a working kidney after three years. Patients looking into transplant or post-transplant treatment have access to research studies focusing on new medications to prevent the rejection of transplanted kidneys. Combined with a specialized post-transplant infectious disease team and a wellness program, UW Medicine is dedicated to your well-being post-transplant.
