Surgical Director, Lung Transplantation
Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center, Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Houston, Texas, United States
As surgical director of the lung transplant program, my goal is to lead the world’s largest and highest quality lung transplant program. I am passionate about maximizing donor organs for lung transplant recipients given the high mortality of patients on the waitlist and a shortage of donor organs. I successfully initiated portable ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) research and clinical programs and am credited with the first “breathing lung” transplant in the Midwest and in Texas.
