Looking For a Heart Transplant Surgeon



Could anyone recommend a surgeon who can perform heart transplant without blood transfusion?
The Patient lives in the Virgina, area. I don't believe geographics will be a problem.

Have you tried St. Luke's / Texas Heart Institute in Houston, TX?

One more resource....Valluvan Jeevanandam, MD at the University of Chicago. His phone is 773-834-3244. He has been more than helpful to patients from the NY area.
