Kidney Transplant Ludhiana

Introduction

Ludhiana, Punjab's largest industrial city, sees a significant number of patients dealing with chronic kidney
disease linked to lifestyle factors such as diabetes and hypertension. For advanced treatment — including kidney
transplant surgery — many Ludhiana patients travel to Chandigarh/Mohali, roughly 100 km (about a 2-hour
drive) away, rather than making the longer trip to Delhi.

Kidney Transplant Chandigarh at IVY Hospital, Mohali, is a regular referral destination for Ludhiana-based
patients seeking a second opinion, dialysis planning, or transplant evaluation.
