Piedmont Liver Transplant 3.0

The Piedmont Liver Transplant / Hepatobiliary App offers continuous accessibility for referring physicians to the Piedmont Transplant Institute team. Piedmont is committed to enhancing the referral process for patients and physicians. The app provides comprehensive information for referring physicians and patients seeking liver transplants and complex liver care.

For more than eight years, our team has been dedicated to treating patients with liver disease. Since conducting our inaugural liver transplant in 2005, we have successfully completed over 650 liver transplants. The team now consists of six liver transplant surgeons and four transplant hepatologists who are focused on caring for patients with end-stage liver disease. Our program has expanded to become one of the largest in the Southeast, carrying out 90 to 100 liver transplants annually. Our patient and graft survival rates exceed the national average.

Similarly, our hepatobiliary program has seen significant growth. We now handle over 150 complex hepatobiliary cases each year. Our team is proficient in managing all surgical conditions related to the liver, pancreas, and bile ducts. Additionally, we incorporate minimally invasive and robotic procedures into our surgical capabilities.

The app includes contact details such as cell phone numbers and emails for all Piedmont Transplant Institute physicians and surgeons for urgent referrals. Using the built-in Quick Referral tool, referring physicians can initiate the referral process directly from their iOS devices. Patients can utilize the app to explore insights about the liver transplant team, access information regarding the transplant process, expectations, and even view a video of our team performing a liver transplant.
