Lung Transplant Complete Care Team
At Mayo Clinic, lung transplant specialists work together throughout your care. Transplant pulmonologists and surgeons guide your medical and surgical care, while your transplant coordinator helps keep you informed and connected. Other experts join your care based on your health needs and where you are in the transplant process.
The mix of people involved can change as you move from evaluation through waiting, surgery, recovery, and long-term follow-up. Your team works together, with you at the center, so you understand who is involved and how each person contributes to your care.

- Evaluation and team review
- Waiting and preparation
- Surgery and hospital recovery
- Long-term follow-up
