Mayo Clinic in Florida completed its 10,000th transplant! The landmark procedure was the liver portion of a combined heart–liver transplant, a powerful symbol of the collaboration, innovation, and teamwork that define our program. Thanks to the generosity of our donors.

As always, a great Annual #Hypertension2025 meeting. Here are some key take-home points for hypertension care across all settings (primary care & specialty care): 1️⃣ BP treatment goal <130/80 mmHg. Ideal: <120/80 mmHg for high CVD risk patients.

I am an organ donor and a proud caregiver to transplant recipients. ~90k patients are waiting for a kidney transplant & 50% will die before it due to organ shortage. Learn more here: #donationsaveslives

Recently, misinformation about organ #donation surfaced. I’m an organ donor and proud caregiver to transplant recipients. More than 90,000 people are waiting for a kidney, and half will die before getting one. The shortage is real. Sign up to be an organ donor #DonationSavesLives

Driving on the highway today and spotted a car with this car plate. Excited to see a fellow comrade in the organ donation mission… but sorry, my friend: I’ve got the correct spelling. 😊 💙💚 #OrganDonation #KidneyTransplant #Donor #Kidneys

Epicness 👇👇
Among some excellent sessions so far at #WTC2025 in SF 🇺🇸, watching my 14-year old son from @KES_Stratford give an oral presentation is the highlight 🤩 An outstanding achievement to speak at an international congress with confidence (maybe I’m biased 😉) @AST_info @ttsorg

Congrats @StephOharaMD on a strong presentation of our study on liver NMP—low bile volume isn’t a reliable predictor of poor transplant outcomes. Important insight as we refine viability assessment. #WTC2025 @ASTSChimera #TransplantTwitter
