The Transplant and Dialysis Access Surgery department at UHCW is led by a team of five Consultant Surgeons, supported by senior trainees and fellows in general and vascular surgery. In addition, we are supported by one associate specialist in general and renal surgery, junior doctors, specialist nurses and an administration team. The Transplantation Service extends to patients from Dudley and the West Midlands, with a population of approximately 1.5 million.
We have developed, with Oxford University Hospitals, a joint research, training and clinical service programme (Coventry-Oxford Network for Transplantation, COxNeT). In early 2022 this collaboration will have completed five years and it has allowed patients from both sites to be transplanted at the other when resources have not permitted surgery at their usual hospital.
In the last five years this arrangement has become a national exemplar in transplantation and has allowed more than 130 patients to have a transplant who otherwise might have missed out on the opportunity.
