Meet senior transplant coordinator Doug Penrod.  Each of our podcasts feature either a living donor, or a transplant expert.  Doug is both an expert and a living donor which makes him the first Donor Diaries Double Dipper!  Join Doug and Laurie as they discuss the controversial aspects of dialysis in America and what is being done to ensure that dialysis patients understand their option to get a kidney transplant.  Find out what a “God Committee” is and learn how they determined who would live or die in the early years of dialysis machines.  Find out what compelled Doug to become a living kidney donor himself after over 20 years of working with organ donors and recipients.
