Biography

 

Dr. Stephen Tomlanovich is a nationally known kidney transplant specialist who has worked to improve patient access to transplants through the development of outreach clinics in communities throughout Northern California.

In addition to caring for patients, he conducts research to help develop new immunosuppressive medications to prevent organ rejection. He is a principal investigator in numerous studies that have led to new immunosuppressive drugs to improve the success rate of transplants while minimizing side effects. He also is involved with regional and national organizations and serves on the board of directors of the California Transplant Donor Network and the Transpacific Renal Network.

Tomlanovich earned a medical degree at the University of Michigan and completed an internship at Rush Presbyterian-St. Luke's Hospital followed by a residency at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit. In 1985, he completed a nephrology fellowship at Stanford University and joined UCSF Medical Center.
