The Transplant Center
is a partnership of the
following entities:




The Transplant Center—Aftercare

The patient experience does not end after surgery. Mind, body and spirit require attention on a daily basis. In addition to post-transplant interaction with care coordinators who monitor lab results and health, other programs and services are available to the transplant patient.

Alternative Therapies

Mindfulness-based stress reduction and peer-lead healthy-life programs are being studied to document their effectiveness for transplant patients.

Fairview-University Specialty Pharmacy

One call can immediately put you in touch with a pharmacist specially trained in transplant medications. Keep track, review and understand your medications and get advice on selecting over-the-counter medications that won’t interfere with your transplant medications. Work with the pharmacy to make the most of your prescription insurance benefits.

Home Care

Serving 16 counties in Minnesota, Fairview Home Care has a specialty transplant team including special-interest nurses who coordinate directly with The Transplant Center.
