How long will it take to get a new kidney?

There is no definite answer to this question. Sometimes, people wait only a few days or weeks before receiving a donor organ. If no living-related donor is available, it may take months or years on the waiting list before a suitable donor organ is available. During this time, you will receive close follow-up with your physicians and the transplant team. Various support groups are also available to assist you during this waiting time.
