The Transplant Institute
The Transplant Institute offers patients a second chance at life.
Over the past 30 years, the Research Medical Center Transplant Program has earned a reputation of technical excellence, advanced research and success in kidney and pancreas transplants. The Transplant Institute has completed hundreds of successful transplants under the direction of Daniel Murillo, MD, accredited transplant surgeon.

We are committed to building The Transplant Institute into the most active, most successful center in the Midwest, offering the region’s only simultaneous pancreas/kidney transplant program. Research Medical Center maintains a dedicated transplant unit and offers an onsite living donor transplant coordinator. We also actively participate in multi-center drug studies.
