Trying to compare Duke Hospital with UNC-Chapel Hill. I have looked at srtr.org and find it to be overwhelming. Can anyone give me an idea as to what I should focus on? Hopefully, I will have a living donor. Thanks.

I am a RN living donor. Looked at the data on those 2 centers. Outcomes as expected means they have average mortality and complication rates. Between the 2 Duke has more volume which is good. Duke has less people waiting and shorter wait times. You can list at multiple centers.
