Emory University Hospital is continuously expanding with the recent addition of a new 450,000 square-foot Hospital Tower on Clifton Campus. This has allowed for expansion of services and expert care, while creating an integrated, welcoming and spacious environment for patients and their families.

Our renowned surgeons have performed more than 8,900 transplants, with Emory Transplant Center ranking among the top 15 centers in the nation by adult volume.
