transplant center

Surgical relocation hub

A transplant center is a medical facility specializing in organ transplantation—the surgical replacement of failing organs with healthy ones from donors.

These centers handle the complex process of matching recipients with compatible organs, performing the surgery, and managing post-operative care: She's been on the transplant center's waiting list for two years.

Major transplant centers often specialize in particular organs: heart, liver, kidney.
