One of the burdens of kidney failure is that, while waiting for the chance of a transplant, patients often have to spend several hours several times a week on dialysis. This means most patients can't travel without arranging dialysis sessions at their destination.
After my Morishima Lecture in London, Silvina Lindner pointed out to me that there is an emerging marketplace for dialysis travel.
Here's the website of Connectus Medical, which offers to help arrange dialysis in more than 150 countries.
(In another approach, see my post on efforts towards portable dialysis.)
