Heart Transplant Program
University Health Care has a long tradition of excellence in the treatment of heart disease and has been a leader in heart transplantation since 1985. As an early pioneer in artificial heart technology, the University was among the first Medicare-approved centers for heart transplantation.
Heart Transplant patients have access to a multidisciplinary team of health care professionals: transplant cardiologists, surgeons, registered nurses, pharmacists, dieticians, social workers, financial advisors, and support staff. The team has extensive experience in all phases of care from initial evaluation through post-operative follow-up.
