A Big Year for Organ Transplants at Mayo Clinic

Mayo Clinic hit a new high in 2025 with 2, 065 organ transplants. This beats their old record from 2024 by 59 transplants. The clinics in Minnesota, Arizona, and Florida all worked together to make this happen. This big number shows how far organ transplant tech has come. New research and tools have made transplants safer and more effective. But even with this progress, the waitlist for organs is still very long. Over 109, 000 people are waiting for a transplant.The clinic says they are working hard to help more people. They are teaming up, investing in new tech, and doing more research. Their goal is to make transplants available to everyone who needs them. Dr. Julie Heimbach, who leads the transplant team, thanked the donors and their families. She also praised the transplant recipients for their strength and the care teams for their hard work. She said this record is a sign of hope for many people. Even with this success, the clinic knows there is still a lot to do. The long waitlist shows that more needs to be done. They are committed to finding ways to help more people get the transplants they need.
