Ontario Dentist Seeks Kidney Donor for Son with End-Stage Renal Disease

Posted: September 8, 2025
Julian Martino, a 25-year-old hemodialysis nurse diagnosed with end-stage renal disease, urgently needs a kidney transplant. His father, Dr. Pat Martino, a Brampton-based dentist, is seeking a living donor match as neither he nor his wife can donate. The University Health Network in Toronto advises sharing Julian's story to find a suitable donor. Interested donors can contact UHN's Living Donor Program or email Dr. Martino. The Ajmera Transplant Centre at Toronto General Hospital, where Julian is seeking treatment, is Canada's largest organ transplant program, having performed over 700 transplants in 2024.
