Michael Wachs, MD, Chief of Abdominal Transplant Surgery, explains the different types of transplant options, including a whole liver transplant, like the one Olivia received: https://www.childrenscolorado.org/doctors-and-departments/departments/transplant/liver/whole-liver-transplant/
Dr. Wachs also explains why Colorado is a great place to receive a transplant and that our hospital’s wait time is half the national average. All patients have the option to be listed at more than one center and “multi-listing” can help your odds of getting transplanted sooner.
