Life after lung transplant
Lindsay Salguero-Lopez, 43, and Thomas Tartaglia, 64, share a love for kayaking, just one of the many activities both are now able to enjoy freely after receiving life-saving lung transplants. On this episode, they detail the realities of life before and after transplant, from the physical limitations and emotional toll of their conditions to the rigorous post-transplant care, lifestyle adjustments and ongoing medical management. Also joined by Aldo Iacono, MD, who oversees their care through the Northwell Transplant Institute, he explains the importance of finding the right program, longevity after transplant and the challenges of organ availability.
Dr. Iacono is medical director of lung transplantation at the Northwell Transplant Institute.
