Not exactly sure if this is what you want. Also every case may be different ? But for me after my local doctors found my liver cancer they refered me to the Mayo Clinic. Before I was accepted on to the transplant list I had to do about 60 (no joke) tests in Denver. Tons of blood tests, all sort of scans, tests, etc. That took over 2 months. After all was submitted to Mayo they agreed that I could come down to AZ for their tests. I came down and they did another dozen in the course of about a week. I was then added to their list. Them finding the right liver , wait time for that will very greatly person to person. Not sure if that was what you were looking for. Hope that helps. Best of luck.

@craigcraig but did you end up getting a new liver yet? How long have you been waiting? Does insurance cover it? I am so thankful to have found this chat, its the only place I've seen anyone talking and giving advice. Im brand to here.
