Transplant center: Only certain centers perform this type of procedure... The best way to get about being evaluated for this is by seeing your physician who will refer you to a transplant doctor and to be fully evaluated.

Get evaluated: This is not something you just decide to do. Get evaluated by a qualified center that does medical and surgical therapy. If they feel that transplantation is your best option, you are on your way. Availability of donor organs remains a nationwide problem.
