VCU Health Hume-Lee Transplant Center Celebrating 60 years of being First in Second Chances. View our social media guidelines: https://www.vcuhealth.org/patients-and-visitors/social-media-guidelines

As one of the first abdominal transplant programs in the country, the VCU Health Hume-Lee Transplant Center has been home to many important firsts, including Virginia’s first kidney transplant and Virginia’s first liver transplant. Hume-Lee also opened one of the first tissue-typing labs in the world, and established Virginia’s first vascular access program. This tradition of medical innovation and success continues today, as the Hume-Lee Transplant Center consistently ranks among the nation's leading transplant programs while remaining at the forefront of transplant care through the use of advanced therapeutic and surgical techniques.
