Ask the Organ Donor Expert – Doctors Don’t Save Lives?

False!

As part of our Ask the Organ Donor Expert series, the misconception about doctors not wanting to save your life if they know you’re a registered organ donor frequently surfaces.

The misconception was addressed today in this Sun-Times article about a Lake Zurich college student that is currently awaiting a heart transplant. We also wanted to share this video from our organ donor expert, Dave Bosch, to hammer home why this is a misconception.
