The Unit additionally provides surgical support for one of the largest renal failure programmes in the country with more than a thousand patients requiring renal replacement, the majority of whom are using haemodialysis. There are links with Birmingham Children's Hospital and they have three of their own paediatric transplant surgeons. There is an active programme of clinical development with hand assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy, a very strong ABO incompatible program, complex transplant clinics, tertiary and novel vascular access, a regional transplant network and a strong live donor support program. This would ideally suit a trainee surgeon with an interest in vascular or transplant surgery.
