Liver Transplant and Disease Patient Stories
Each year our liver team cares for thousands of individuals with liver disease. Approximately 70 individuals receive liver transplants each year at California Pacific Medical Center, while hundreds of others undergo treatment for liver cancer or other liver diseases. These are just a few of their stories.
"During our 100 days of hospitalization we witnessed CPMC’s amazing teamwork, dedication, compassion and commitment to patients. The liver transplant team provides this unparalleled devotion every day, for every patient. They don’t give up—ever.”
"It's hard to imagine anyone more capable, compassionate and caring than the medical staff at California Pacific. The team could figure out any challenge and we had complete trust in them."
"California Pacific has become like a second home to me. I love all the doctors and the team there so much–they're friendly, patient and were great every step of the way. They all have a wonderful attitude."
"I was so impressed that after almost nine hours in the operating room, the first thing Dr. Osorio did was to find my daughters and spend an hour with them explaining the situation. He was so patient and optimistic–the whole liver team really makes you feel like you're their only patient."
"This is a great group of doctors who work together wonderfully. We feel blessed that we were able to get to California Pacific and with the successful outcome of my liver transplant. Our life changed overnight, but the care we received happened in the best possible way for the worst possible scenario."
