Pioneering Medical Advances
Throughout our history, we have pioneered medical advances that save lives and protect against disease. For example, we performed the first successful adult human heart transplant in the country and the first combined heart-lung transplant in the world.
As part of the Stanford University Medical Center, Stanford Hospital & Clinics has a close relationship with both the Stanford University School of Medicine, the oldest medical school in the Western United States, and Lucile Packard Children's Hospital, an adjacent pediatric teaching hospital providing general acute and tertiary care.
Stanford's ability to provide state-of-the-art care is enhanced by the close collaboration among these entities and their mutual commitment to patient care.
