UT Southwestern Medical Center’s Reconstructive Transplant program offers an innovative operation for those who have suffered the loss of their hand(s).

Clinic staff also includes registered nurses, medical office assistants, and clinic schedulers.
We are dedicated to restoring critical hand functions and regaining the important sense of touch – something that a prosthetic cannot provide.
We provide transplant recipients with medical, financial, and psychosocial information, and offer post-transplant care.
