Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a growing health concern in Nigeria, driven by high rates of hypertension and diabetes, and complicated by limited access to dialysis and kidney transplant services outside major cities. For many Nigerian patients, treatment is limited to dialysis with long waiting times and significant cost. Stem Cell Cure India works with Nigerian patients exploring stem cell therapy as a complementary option to standard nephrology care.
Dialysis centres and nephrology specialists are concentrated in a small number of Nigerian cities, with many patients travelling long distances for regular dialysis sessions. Kidney transplant programmes are limited, with long waiting lists for compatible donors. This has led an increasing number of Nigerian patients to explore stem cell therapy abroad as a way to potentially slow disease progression and reduce dialysis frequency.
Dr. Tyagi leads the regenerative medicine protocol design at Stem Cell Cure India, overseeing stem cell sourcing, lab processing, and treatment planning for patients — including those travelling from Nigeria .
Dr. Singh brings over three decades of clinical experience in general medicine and surgery, supporting the overall health evaluation of patients — including baseline assessments for kidney disease patients — before and during their stem cell therapy journey at Stem Cell Cure India.
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) are studied for their potential to support repair of damaged kidney tissue (nephrons), reduce inflammation, and help slow the progression of chronic kidney disease. Cells are administered via a minimally invasive procedure under nephrology and regenerative medicine supervision. This approach does not replace dialysis or transplant in advanced kidney failure, but is explored as an option that may help slow progression in earlier or moderate-stage CKD.
Suitability depends on the stage and cause of kidney disease. Before travelling, our team reviews:
No. Stem cell therapy is not a replacement for dialysis in advanced kidney failure. It is explored as an option that may help slow disease progression and support kidney function in earlier or moderate-stage CKD, alongside — not instead of — standard nephrology care.
Patients on dialysis are evaluated individually. Please share your current dialysis schedule and recent kidney function tests so our team can advise honestly on whether this option may be relevant to your case.
Recent kidney function tests (creatinine, eGFR), details of the underlying cause of CKD, and current dialysis status if applicable. This allows our team to give an initial opinion before you commit to travel.
Most patients stay between 7 and 14 days, depending on diagnostic requirements and the treatment plan.
Yes. Once treatment is confirmed, we provide the invitation and supporting documents Nigerian citizens need to apply for a Medical Visa through the Indian High Commission in Abuja or Consulate in Lagos.
Cost depends on disease stage and the treatment plan required. Contact us for a personalised quote after sharing your kidney function reports and medical history.
