Kaidence Oliver, 22 months, shares a smile with William Chapman, M.D., chief, abdominal transplantation section at Barnes-Jewish Hospital. Kaidence had a liver transplant one year ago at St. Louis Children’s Hospital after being diagnosed in utero with an inherited liver disease. When Kaidence came to St. Louis Children’s Hospital Jan. 17 for her one-year checkup, she was treated to a party for being the 1,000th liver transplant patient in the University’s liver transplant program. With Kaidence are (from left) her mother, Amber Oliver; Ross Shepherd, M.D., director of the liver program at St. Louis Children’s Hospital; her father, Matt Oliver; Chapman; and Jeffrey Lowell, M.D., chief, abdominal organ transplantation at St. Louis Children’s Hospital and associate director, abdominal organ transplantation at Barnes-Jewish Hospital, who performed the transplant.
