More than 100,000 people in the United States are currently waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant. For patients and families facing liver failure in South Texas and across the country, the compassionate care, expertise and legacy of clinical excellence at the University Health Transplant Institute make it a top choice for treatment.

Recently, the San Antonio Express-News highlighted why University Health Transplant Institute has earned a reputation as the No. 1 liver transplant program in the nation.

The story also spotlights donor-funded technology like the da Vinci robot surgical system and the leadership of Dr. Danielle Fritze, the McCombs Endowed Surgical Director of Pediatric Liver Transplant at University Health. Dr. Fritze’s position is the very first to be endowed through University Health Foundation, all thanks to the generosity of the McCombs Family.
