Heart Transplant Surgery

Nearly 5.7 million Americans live with heart failure, and 670,000 new cases are diagnosed yearly. Heart failure is when the heart cannot pump enough oxygen-rich blood to meet the needs of the body's other organs. While some medical and surgical procedures can help heal an unhealthy heart, for some patients, the best option is a heart transplant.
