Mission
The specific mission of the Transplant Clinic is to provide care that meets the needs of patients who are waiting for a heart transplant and who have received a transplant. Clinic staff also strive to meet family needs as well. The clinic's case management services, which include evaluation and education as well as outpatient and inpatient follow-up, are provided in collaboration with professionals of the multidisciplinary team.
Follow-up of transplant patients also requires regular exams, such as myocardial biopsy.
The transplant team can also provide specialized treatment that includes artificial heart implantation.
