For patients afflicted with diseases that result in organ failure, replacement of that body part offers renewed quality of life and extended life expectancy. The success of transplantation rests on the talents of highly motivated and focused multidisciplinary teams, converging science and technology to its fullest extent. The faculty and staff at the Transplant Center at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio are devoted to take on the challenges patients with organ failure face, and we will work to better the lives of our patients.
