About the center
Overview
The University of Cincinnati Transplant and Cellular Therapy Program, led by Edward Faber, MD, is one of few transplantation sites which offers treatment in one outpatient hospital setting. Designed with patient comfort and convenience in mind, the center features state-of-the-art cellular therapy infusion suites and exam rooms along with integrative appointment scheduling. Patients can expect a care team consisting of hematology oncology specialists who focus exclusively on blood cancers as well as dedicated radiation oncologists, cancer and bone marrow transplant-trained hospitalists, pathologists, oncology nurse practitioners and nurses, pharmacists, dietitians, oncology social workers, a nurse educator for patients and caregivers and a director for clinical quality management.
This center has been performing allogeneic transplants since 2013 and has been an NMDP/Be The Match transplant center since August 2018.
