Kidney Transplantation

From the reviews: "The purpose is to help healthcare providers in all settings understand health issues unique to kidney transplant recipients and how to best provide quality care for this patient population. The authors successfully accomplish this with a timely and relevant book. The audience is all providers of healthcare to kidney transplant recipients, including those in non-transplant settings."
