About the center
Overview
Our program is FACT accredited, operating since 1997. We have a 19-bed unit and perform autologous and allogeneic transplants. Our center pioneered the use of reduced-intensity regimens for myelofibrosis and other hematological malignancies, is actively involved in chemotherapy-free stem cell transplantation in sickle cell disease, and performs stem cell isolation, iexpansion and manipulation.
This center has been performing allogeneic transplants since 1997 and has been an NMDP/Be The Match transplant center since September 1999.

Treatments may be similar for diseases within a group. It might be helpful to look at centers that have done transplants for a specific disease and centers that have done transplants for any corresponding broad disease categories.
Centers are not required to report autologous transplants so the numbers might be incomplete.
