Thank you for considering the University of California San Francisco Abdominal Transplant
Fellowship Program. Our faculty is committed to your development as a knowledgeable,
competent, and experienced abdominal transplant surgeon. Our program is designed to
provide comprehensive training in abdominal transplantation, including the evaluation of
transplant candidates, the management of patients with acute and chronic liver disease, and
the operative, peri-operative, and post-operative care of organ transplant patients. We
provide ample exposure to deceased donor multi-organ procurement and living donor
nephrectomy and hepatectomy. We have a strong didactic program with many weekly
meetings including Transplant Mortality and Morbidity Conference, meetings of the Kidney
and Liver Selection Committees, Transplant Laboratory Group Meeting, Liver Transplant
Pathology Conference, and the Transplant Seminar Series. Additional didactic opportunities
include General Surgery Grand Rounds and innumerable basic science lectures
complementing the UCSF academic atmosphere. We are proud of our multi-dimensional
training experience and committed to evolving our program to meeting the dynamic needs of
transplantation today.
