Emory Transplant Center & Solid Organ Transplant
The Transplant Center at Emory in Atlanta, Georgia, is one of the Southeast’s most technologically advanced and wide-ranging centers specializing in solid organ transplant. We are dedicated to providing you the best care possible at our state-of-the-art transplant center — from our comprehensive patient treatment and support services to our revolutionary transplantation research.
In many aspects, the Transplant Center at Emory is a trailblazer not only for the U. S., but for the state of Georgia, and the transplant surgeons at our hospital are recommended by many prestigious organizations throughout the country. We can account for many of the firsts in the transplant field, such as Georgia’s first kidney transplant in 1966 and the first lung transplant in 1993, as well as strides in islet transplantation and research. Time and time again, our survival rates have proven to be above the national average.
Solid Organ Transplant for Every Need
Emory offers transplantation programs for the heart, lung, liver, kidney, pancreas, islet, and hand. We will walk you through each step of the process from pre-transplant information to post-transplant procedures and medication requirements. We help you closely monitor changes and work with you to ensure a high level of quality care.
Each transplant program offers a professional and experienced team of surgeons and physicians as well as transplant nurse coordinators, social workers, clinical pharmacists, nutritionists, and a chaplain, who are all qualified to help you or your loved one during a visit to the Emory Transplant Center. In addition, we have financial coordinators who can help you devise a financial plan necessary for a solid organ transplant.
