Trust Mount Sinai for Your Lung Transplantation Patients
If one of your patients has complex lung issues, or may be a candidate for lung transplantation, you can trust the lung transplant specialists at Mount Sinai.
Our team’s combined clinical expertise spans over three decades and 1,000 transplants, enabling us to care for traditional lung transplantation patients—those with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), primary pulmonary hypertension, and cystic fibrosis—as well as highly complex cases that few health systems are equipped to handle, such as:
- Immune-compromised patients (e.g., patients with human immunodeficiency virus, or HIV, and bone marrow transplant recipients who experience lung failure)
- Multi-organ transplants
- Bloodless/low blood utilization transplants
Combining surgical skill with personalized attention, our lung transplant specialists draw on the newest research and technologies to personalize the best approach for each of our patients.
We believe in a collaborative relationship and clear communication with our referring physicians to ensure a seamless continuum of care and optimal patient experience. Each patient receives personal attention and care by the same team, pre- and post-transplant. The transplant team also includes experienced social workers, psychiatrists, nutritionists, financial coordinators, and pharmacists, in addition to our medical and surgical team. You can rely on us for clear and timely communication regarding your patient.
