Kidney Transplant Patient
"I feel amazing after the surgery; I don't have to drive myself or have my child take me for dialysis anymore... it's like a new life—like being a new person!"
"I've had kidney disease for 10 years, and including dialysis, it's been 11 and a half years. I also suffer from hyperthyroidism, gout, and high blood pressure, leading to continuous pain medication use. During a routine annual check-up, my kidney function was elevated to 1.9, so I started treatment with Dr. Tanomsak Asavadilokchai at Ramkhamhaeng Hospital. I received medication, but my condition worsened over time. I resisted dialysis for a year until I couldn't anymore and decided to undergo dialysis twice a week, four hours each session. This was a major turning point that led me to consider a kidney transplant. Dr. Tanomsak informed me that Ramkhamhaeng Hospital had a kidney transplant program, registered with the Thai Red Cross. I decided to join, and in less than a year, on a Monday night, I received a call from the hospital informing me that a kidney was available. I was told to come to Ramkhamhaeng Hospital on Tuesday for surgery. I had the transplant surgery that very Tuesday night, May 24, 2022. Since I had already undergone preliminary health checks, I only needed a quick blood pressure check and an ECG. The surgery began at 10:30 PM, lasted about 5 hours, and I stayed in the hospital for half a month. The doctor schedules follow-up appointments periodically. I feel incredible after the surgery; I don't have to drive or have my child bring me for dialysis anymore... it truly feels like a new lease on life—like a brand new me!"
"My quality of life has improved; I can return to work as usual." "I've been on dialysis for 7 years. The service is excellent; the doctor and team provide great advice and care. Now, after my kidney transplant, my body feels much better."
Dr. Tanin Sirimongkolrat, a nephrologist at Ramkhamhaeng Hospital, shares a patient's story:
"A 55-year-old male patient with chronic kidney failure has been under our care for 10 years, and this is likely his eighth year on dialysis. He used to complain about the weekly three-times-a-week hospital visits, which meant missing work and business opportunities. He also faced frequent infections and hospitalizations, significantly impacting his quality of life despite his relatively young age. Three months ago, when Ramkhamhaeng Hospital launched its kidney transplant program with the Thai Red Cross, he was immediately interested. Following his kidney transplant, he's returned to a normal life and work."
Ramkhamhaeng Hospital is a member of the Thai Red Cross Organ Donation Centre and performs kidney transplants for end-stage renal failure patients. For inquiries about kidney transplant surgery, call 064-5646059 daily (08:00 - 16:00)
