Greater Noida, 24th February 2026: ShardaCare-Healthcity further enhances its urology department by adding a Kidney Transplant department (KTP) with the appointment of three distinguished specialists – Dr. Anil Sharma and Dr. Ahmed Kamaal as Directors, Department of Kidney Transplant & Urology and Dr. Kunal Raj Gandhi as Director, Department of Nephrology. With over 15 years of cumulative experience in kidney transplantation, urology, and advanced renal care, the newly appointed directors will further enhance ShardaCare-Healthcity’s capabilities in comprehensive kidney care and transplant excellence.
Kidney transplant is a life-saving procedure performed for patients suffering from end-stage renal disease (ESRD), where the kidneys lose their ability to effectively filter waste and excess fluids from the blood. While dialysis offers temporary support, a kidney transplant provides a long-term and more sustainable solution by restoring near-normal kidney function. It significantly improves survival rates, enhances quality of life, reduces dependency on frequent dialysis sessions, and lowers the risk of cardiovascular complications commonly associated with chronic kidney disease.
Dr. Anil Sharma and Dr. Ahmed Kamaal specialize in urology and kidney transplantation, with extensive expertise in robotic urological surgery, complex transplant procedures, and advanced urological care. Joining them is Dr. Kunal Raj Gandhi, a specialist in Nephrology with deep expertise in the medical management of complex renal disorders, high-risk Transplant, and ABO-incompatible transplants. He focuses on the clinical optimization of patients before and after transplantation, as well as advanced interventional nephrology. His extensive clinical background includes the successful performance of over 1,000 kidney biopsies, ensuring precise diagnosis and tailored treatment plans for all stages of kidney disease.
The establishment of the leadership team marks a significant milestone for the Kidney Transplant division at ShardaCare-Healthcity. It requires seamless coordination between nephrologists and urologists, from patient evaluation and donor matching to complex surgical intervention and long-term post-transplant monitoring. By bringing together specialists with deep expertise in nephrology, advanced urological surgery, and transplant medicine, the hospital strengthens its multidisciplinary framework.
The doctors will further strengthen ShardaCare-Healthcity’s collaborative approach to delivering comprehensive end-to-end diagnosis and treatment in kidney transplantation. With their extensive experience in managing renal disorders and chronic kidney diseases, advancing innovative treatment techniques, and establishing and developing urological surgery programs across the country, they are set to enhance the hospital’s excellence in transplant care.
Dr. Anil Sharma, Director – Department of Kidney Transplant & Urology, ShardaCare-Healthcity, said, “Our goal is to deliver comprehensive kidney failure management — from timely transplant evaluation to advanced surgical intervention and long-term follow-up care. By combining innovation in urological surgery with patient-centric protocols, we aim to set new standards in transplant success rates, safety, and overall patient experience at ShardaCare-Healthcity.”
Dr. Ahmed Kamaal, Director – Department of Kidney Transplant & Urology, ShardaCare-Healthcity, said, “We are committed to advancing kidney transplantation through precision-driven, minimally invasive, and robotic surgical techniques that enhance safety and recovery. At ShardaCare-Healthcity, we will work toward building a robust transplant ecosystem that prioritizes surgical excellence, reduced complications, and superior long-term outcomes for patients with end-stage renal disease.”
Dr. Kunal Raj Gandhi, Director – Department of Nephrology, ShardaCare-Healthcity, said, “At ShardaCare-Healthcity, our Nephrology department is committed to setting new benchmarks in the medical management of complex renal disorders. We prioritize clinical excellence through precise diagnostic techniques, including advanced interventional nephrology and kidney biopsies, to create tailored treatment plans. Our focus remains on the meticulous medical optimization of patients, specifically for high-risk and ABO-incompatible Transplant cases, ensuring excellent outcomes and deliver comprehensive care that enhances the long-term quality of life for our patients.”
