Liver Transplant: Patient Education from University of Colorado Hospital

The transition from chronic illness to having a healthy transplanted liver calls for many psychological and social lifestyle changes. It is important for you to understand both the Liver Transplant Process and how to stay healthy after the transplant.

Liver Transplant: Getting a Second Opinion

A liver transplant is a major surgery. It is important to feel comfortable with both your doctors and the staff, as you will spend much time with them. University of Colorado Hospital is happy to offer a second opinion and to work with you if you choose to come to our hospital for your surgery.

Please contact the Hepatology department at (720) 848-2245 to schedule your first appointment.
