Our clinical work

Early referral is encouraged so that evaluation and wait-listing can be timed to achieve optimal outcomes. Twenty-four hour access to our physician and surgical faculty and staff is available for consultation and referrals. A comprehensive inpatient service provides focused care of these patients with end stage organ failure. Specialty outpatient clinics provide in-depth pre- and post-transplant care. Specialists in hepatology, gastroenterology, nephrology, diabetology, cardiology, pulmonology, interventional radiology, anesthesiology, urology, psychiatry, psychology, dietetics, physical therapy, social services and ethical/pastoral care are all coordinated to assist with multi-disciplinary care for patients. We conduct multiple investigative protocols in transplantation and hepatobiliary surgery. Rapid evolution in transplant indications, transplant techniques, immunosuppressive medication and the development of new approaches are evaluated and applied as clinical situations warrant.
