Our Liver Transplant Physician Team

A Collaborative Liver Transplant Team

The University of Chicago Medicine transplant surgeons have conducted thousands of surgeries, earning national and international recognition for their expertise and research. We’re dedicated to perfecting approaches that ensure successful transplants and prevent complications. Our surgical team works side-by-side with hepatologists (liver specialists), specially trained transplant nurses, a transplant pharmacist, a social worker and a dietitian.

UChicago Medicine's liver team transplants patients at a faster rate and with better waitlist survival rates than almost any other program in the country.
