3 livers, 3 kidneys, and a heart. Busy weekend at the VA
In just four days, the transplant team at Houston VA performed a heart transplant, a multi-organ kidney/liver transplant, two kidney transplants, and two liver transplants. Six Veterans lives were changed forever. https://t.co/4kZ7EX6YEf.

Excellent shout-out to our @VAHouston and the transplant team; in case you didn't know, some members include our own @avegailf @ruben_hernaez
What is the value of linking a health system with a school of medicine? Much has been written about the #LearningHealthSystem. Dr. Mark Kobelja, Chief of Staff at MEDVAMC nails it in 90 seconds. Worth watching. @VAHouston @bcmhouston @AAMCtoday
