Patient Reviews
Jul 17, 2022
Dr Heffron completed my liver transplant for Alpha 1 deficiency in 2002 at Emory University Hospital. The procedure was difficult with a lengthy recovery. I have never experienced any signs of rejection and for over 20 years I have lived a relatively normal life without any serious medical problems. I am now 76 years old. Charles Isele. b Benton Ky.
