"Bone marrow transplantation is a long and demanding process that extends far beyond the day of the transplant itself. It requires meticulous care from the patient's preparation through close follow up after the procedure. Reaching our 200th transplant is a great source of pride and happiness for us. This milestone reflects the dedication of a large team, from our physicians and nurses to our laboratory staff and support services," he said.
