Watch: UF Health Transplant Team, Florida Recovery Center Turn Liza’s Shame to Hope

Liza McGee

Between unprocessed trauma and physical ailments, Liza faced depression and anxiety, turning to alcohol as a way to self-medicate. As her addiction progressed, her health rapidly declined, necessitating a life-saving liver transplant.

Thanks to the multidisciplinary care at UF Health from Thiago Beduschi, MD, and his transplant team and the addiction treatment program at the Florida Recovery Center, Liza is thriving, living a happy, healthy life in sobriety.
