Meet Our Pediatric Transplant Physician Team

For 35 years, the physicians at the University of Chicago Medicine Comer Children's Hospital have provided treatment for the most complex medical problems facing children. Each year, our compassionate pediatric specialists treat more than 4,700 infants and children.

Children who have transplants here receive care from an experienced team that includes transplant surgeons, pediatric specialists, specially trained nurses, dietitians, social workers, pharmacists, and other healthcare professionals.

Our team helps families along every step of the way: from diagnosis and pre-transplant testing and counseling to your child's transplant surgery and recovery.
