Stem Cell Treatment For CKD?

Posted by maxwell123 @maxwell123, Jul 6, 2019

Has anyone been treated at Mayo with stem cell therapy to improve their kidney function? I am very interested in this new regenerative medical treatment.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Kidney & Bladder Support Group.

I began this topic several weeks ago. Since then I reached out to the Transplant Consultant group. They are incredible. The consultant took all of my information and said she would check with her neph doctors and get back. She got back in a few days. The neph doctors indicted that stem cell kidney treatment is not being done except in the labs. It is not in the clinic. She gave me a couple of other places to check but I struck out there as well. I'm not giving up, though! I'll post back here if I find something. In the meantime, the consulting service at Mayo Transplant Center is first class. They are very professional and know the issues very well (no surprise there).
