Transplant Oncology Infectious Diseases Program
Solid organ and bone marrow transplant recipients, as well as those with hematologic malignancies, are particularly susceptible to infections. Their immune systems are suppressed either due to treatments they receive or as a result of their underlying medical conditions. Often, they require specialized care.
At Weill Cornell Medicine, our physicians provide compassionate care to prevent, diagnosis and manage infectious diseases in transplant recipients and patients with hematologic malignancies. Our infectious disease experts collaborate with oncology and transplant specialists, ensuring patients receive comprehensive and coordinated care.
