What they personally lead.
Training and recognition
Sun Yat-sen 1st Hospital is one of China's highest-volume kidney transplant centers, performing several hundred transplants annually with long-running outcomes data; the nephrology and transplant team manages one of the larger ABO-incompatible and HLA-sensitized recipient cohorts in southern China; the department contributes to Chinese Society of Organ Transplantation expert consensus on induction therapy and rejection management; serves as a referral site for international patients seeking living-donor kidney transplant evaluation and post-transplant follow-up
What to expect
This entry is best treated as a center-level recommendation: international patients evaluating living-donor kidney transplantation, ABO-incompatible transplant protocols, or post-transplant rejection workup should contact the Sun Yat-sen 1st Hospital nephrology and transplant team directly to confirm the current attending best matched to their case. Cross-border kidney transplantation in China is tightly regulated — verify donor-recipient legal eligibility through official channels before travel. <!-- TODO: needs second source -->
