"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." - D. Eisenhower

We performed our 20,000th organ transplant! Our transplant program started in the 1960s & has some of the highest patient survival rates in the country. Congrats to our entire transplant team & the patient, who is recovering after receiving a new heart! ucsfh.org/3HU1iJJ

On this day in 1968, Norman Shumway performed the first successful heart transplant in the US at Stanford. The receipient was a 54 yo steel worker, and lived for 14 days. The landmark operation created a burst of enthusiasm for heart transplantation. #CTSurgery

Had a great first day at the inaugural UCSF Heart Failure symposium in Sonoma. Terrific turnout, great engagement, interesting discussions. What a fantastic venue for an intimate meeting. The first of many! #ucsfhearttransplant #ucsfsurgery #ucsfheartfailure #ucsfheartsinsonoma
