With immense pride, The Liver Institute at Methodist Dallas announces their new rating as the #1 hospital in the Dallas area for liver transplant! Studies show that, not only does The Liver Institute care for the sickest patients throughout the region, but they also have the highest survival rate for liver transplant patients. This new data has inspired the hospital to share their success through Yes2Living, a resource that helps patients and their families find answers to their most pressing concerns in addition to bringing awareness to the importance of finding a hospital that can answer their crucial question: “Will I live?”
The Liver Institute is home to a full circle team of physicians, surgeons, and specialists who join forces to address a variety of diseases affecting the liver, bile ducts, pancreas and more. Their collaboration is a direct benefit for patients as, together, they focus on providing long, healthy lives, with research showing their survival outcomes as some of the highest across the U.S. Yes2Living is yet another step in their mission to provide easy-access resources to both patients and their families, encouraging them to ask questions, compare outcomes and find answers throughout every aspect of their diagnosis and treatment. Methodist Dallas has also partnered with the Mayo Clinic through Answers2, a free Q&A for medical questions. Overall, the goal of these new resources is to help all patients find the transplant program that is best for them and their families.
The new #1 rating for The Liver Institute and Methodist Dallas has been presented through statistical research performed by the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR), an organization supplying information about various transplant programs across the country. SRTR offers statistical reports and visual aids to highlight outcomes for individual programs. They also provide tools including a Liver Waiting List Calculator that assists potential liver transplant candidates in understanding their potential results of being on a waiting list by outlining past results and comparing programs throughout the nation. Statistics for The Liver Institute show that, when compared to other hospitals in Dallas, their patients have a higher status of urgency and a 5% greater survival rate. For some, that incremental percentage could mean a life and death difference. As The Liver Institute states, “Knowledge is power.”
We have the sickest patients, and the best outcomes.
