Most ambulatory clinics at both KHSC sites, including the Children's Outpatient Clinic (COPC) walk-in clinic, will be closed Monday, Nov. 16. Clinic phones will not be answered. Please plan ahead if you need to manage an appointment or prescription. Appointments scheduled for Nov. 16 will not be impacted.
This phase will include additional diagnostic tests and meetings with other health care professionals, including a psychiatrist, social worker, and surgeon. More tests/consults may be required to follow up on any abnormal findings.
It is important that each donor has a full assessment of their health to be sure they are suitable for kidney donation. We will make every effort to minimize the number of trips you need to make to your appointments. Some potential donors may learn that they are not able to donate a kidney for medical or psychological reasons. This can be upsetting for the donor. Sometimes, potential donors may learn of a newly diagnosed health concern. If a medical problem is found during pre-donation testing, the donor will be referred to a specialist or their family doctor. The donor can also get support through social work or psychological services if desired.
