Lung Transplant

We’ve been performing lung transplants at UVA since 1990, extending and improving the lives of patients with end-stage lung disease. Our primary goal is to improve your quality of life.

Keys to Success

You’ll have a team of doctors, transplant coordinators, social workers, financial counselors and more working to ensure you receive the best care possible. We’ll work with your referring and primary doctor, who is an important member of your transplant team.
