Today in the U.S., more than 112,000 people are waiting for an organ transplant. More than 1,800 of our family, friends and co-workers wait in Wisconsin. Every 11 minutes, a new name is added to the list, and 19 people will die today because they didn't get the organ they needed to survive in time.
As the home to the third-largest Transplant Program in the nation, we at UW Health see how our patients receive new life through transplantation. The work of our nationally recognized Organ Procurement Organization has created a record-breaking number of donors, but sadly, the wait list continues to grow.
