The Only Comprehensive Transplant Center in Utah
Our transplant center started providing leading-edge patient care in 1965 when we started our kidney transplant program. We have performed 400+ liver transplants and multiple lung, pancreas, and heart transplants. We are the only comprehensive transplant center in Utah offering all solid organ transplant types: kidney, pancreas, liver, heart, and lung.
Services
Heart
For patients with heart failure, we provide both mechanical circulatory support and heart transplant surgery as treatment options.
Kidney
Liver
Our transplant team provides liver transplants and living liver donations for patients with severe liver diseases.
Lung
We provide lung transplant surgeries for patients with severe lung diseases that can't be treated with medicine or therapy.
Pancreas
Because pancreas diseases are so complex, patients who have pancreatic diseases need special care from a team of experts. We provide pancreas transplants for people with severe pancreas problems.
Living Donor Program
Living organ donation is the best option to save lives for people who need organ transplants. With so few organs available for organ transplantation, most people spend months or years waiting on the organ transplant list, if they are fortunate enough to get the care they need at all.
University of Utah Health provides living donor surgeries for living kidney donation. Our program is ranked in the top 10 for living liver donation nationally, and our transplant patients have some of the best outcomes in the country.
