Uterus transplants are responsible for the birth of more than 70 children. Nearly a third of those babies—22 and counting—were born at Baylor University Medical Center. Giuliano Testa, chief of abdominal transplant at Baylor University Medical Center, and his team recently published a major study analyzing the results from the program’s first 20 patients. “We want this to be an option for all women out there that need it,” said Liza Johannesson, the medical director of uterus transplants.

Baylor Scott & White All Saints Medical Center surgery residents Kavneet Kaur, MD, Kendall Wermine, MD and Kristen Kluber, DO, are part of the first class of residents in a new general surgery residency program, made up entirely of women. These physicians are also carrying on a legacy of women-led healthcare at Baylor Scott & White All Saints Medical Center – Fort Worth. The hospital was founded in 1900 by a group of 15 women dedicated to building a medical institution in Fort Worth. Although only 10 months into their first training year of five, the tight-knit cohort is scrubbing into surgery, meeting with patients at clinic, presenting at international conferences and flying along on organ transport flights.

When diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimer's, Luke Davis said that his “diagnosis is NOT a dead end—instead, it is an opportunity to make the most of life and living.” Three years ago, Luke Davis started to notice minor changes in his short-term memory. At the time, he was working as an attorney and was very active in his community and attributed forgetting things to either not paying attention or being too busy. After speaking with a neuropsychologist, he was officially diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimer’s in 2023. Luke wasn’t going to let this diagnosis stop him though. He made the decision to retire and focus on his “new normal,” which focuses on a healthy and active lifestyle. His wife and him have worked to create “checks and balances” to help with his memory and he says the past year has been one of the best years of his life and his marriage.
