Welcome to Transplant Services

Transplant Services is made up of an elite group of surgeons, headed by Goran B. Klintmalm, M.D., Ph.D., F.A.C.S., Chairman and Chief of Baylor Regional Transplant Institute. Established in 1984, Transplant Services works in collaboration with Baylor Regional Transplant Institute and is considered one of the leading transplant centers in the nation and one of the largest adult transplant centers in the United States. 

We offer comprehensive treatments for liver, kidney, pancreas, and islet transplantation. With more than 6000 successful solid organs, bone and marrow transplants, we have established a reputation for excellence and innovation in patient care and research. We are proud to participate in more than 60 research protocols and have trained more than 35 transplant surgeons who are now operating worldwide. Our surgeons provide transplant services at two locations, Baylor University Medical Center, Dallas and Baylor All Saints, Fort Worth.

Survival Rates

Many of our transplant recipients are approaching their 25-year survival milestones and are leading rich and productive lives.

• Baylor Dallas' 3-year liver transplant patient survival rate is an impressive 83.13% which exceeds the expected rate of 78.99%.
• Baylor Dallas' 3-year kidney transplant patient survival rate is 94.58% which is above the expected rate of 92.64%.

We attribute this success to Baylor investigators’ participation in developing today’s more effective anti-rejection drugs that are far less toxic than those used in the past.
