Toronto Lung Transplant Program (University Health Network)
The lung transplant program of University Health Network at Toronto General Hospital, part of the Ajmera Transplant Centre.
As of . Primary source: Toronto Lung Transplant Program, UHN.
Summary
The official program page states that the program is part of University Health Network and describes itself as the largest lung transplant program in the world, with a statement of world firsts that includes the first single and double lung transplants. The clinic is at Toronto General Hospital. The program page lists Stephen Juvet and Tereza Martinu among its respirologists, and the program team page names Marcelo Cypel as Program Director. These descriptions are the program's own statements and are not independently verified here.
