One of the absolute best days for me as a kidney doctor is when one of my patients receives a kidney transplant. It takes their kidney function from abnormal to good, takes them off dialysis and just generally makes them feel all around better. But in doing a deep dive in research on what to eat after a transplant and other methods to help protect that new organ - I was disappointed to see that there really isn't that much information out there. So I wanted to share this video with you all, whether you have had a transplant, are on the waiting list or just generally wanted to do some research on your own.

Working as a kidney doctor, I found that my patients were often unaware of just how important diet and lifestyle were and how often they felt unsupported by generic advice to “eat healthy”.

The home cook in me hated hearing this, so I set out to find a better way. I began to combine my medical training and love of food, making videos of simple recipes that were based on science and packed with flavor. Instead of just saying “eat healthy” to my patients, I could give them the resources they needed to make a real difference in their health.

Kidney doctor, passionate home cook, and YouTube sensation Dr Blake Shusterman empowers people to proactively manage their health by stepping into the kitchen. The author of several cookbooks with over 100,000 YouTube subscribers, The Cooking Doc® believes anyone, at any age can transform their health with small changes that make a big difference. Based on science and packed with flavor, Dr. Blake’s simple recipes have inspired home cooks everywhere to change their diet, retrain their taste buds, and transform their health.
