Transplant Centers
Southwest Transplant Alliance works closely with transplant centers in our service area to improve the donation and transplantation process. While recovered organs may go to locations across the country, our regional transplant center partners are an integral part of our lifesaving work.

Hospitals that are staffed and equipped for these complex procedures are called hospital transplant centers and are members of the Organ Procurement and Transplant Network (OPTN).

There are 250 Transplant Centers in the U.S. STA works closely with the 10 transplant centers within our service area in Texas:
