The new DHR Health Transplant Institute is home to their Kidney Transplant Center, Liver Specialty Center and the Hepatobiliary, Pancreas, and Organ Transplantation Surgery Center. DHR Health is the only approved kidney transplant center in South Texas, meaning members of the community no longer have to travel outside of the Rio Grande Valley to receive all of their transplant care.
