Frequently Asked Questions

What does a Transplant Hepatology gastroenterologist do?

A Transplant Hepatology gastroenterologist is a Gastroenterology physician with focused training in the care of patients with advanced liver disease and those before and after liver transplantation. After completing Gastroenterology residency, they pursue additional fellowship training so they can manage cases that fall outside what a general gastroenterologist typically handles day to day.

What conditions does a Transplant Hepatology gastroenterologist treat?

A Transplant Hepatology gastroenterologist commonly treats cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis, and post-liver-transplant care. Many also see closely related conditions within Gastroenterology, particularly when a case is complex, atypical, or has not responded to first-line care from a general gastroenterologist.

When should I see a Transplant Hepatology gastroenterologist?

Consider seeing a Transplant Hepatology gastroenterologist when you have advanced liver disease or are being evaluated for a liver transplant, when a primary care clinician or general gastroenterologist suggests a focused evaluation, or when you want a second opinion from a physician whose practice is concentrated on this exact area. Patients often reach a Transplant Hepatology gastroenterologist through referral, but you can also seek one directly.

How is a Transplant Hepatology gastroenterologist different from a general gastroenterologist?

Both are board-eligible gastroenterologists, but a Transplant Hepatology gastroenterologist has additional fellowship training and a practice that focuses on the care of patients with advanced liver disease and those before and after liver transplantation. General gastroenterologists treat a broad range of Gastroenterology concerns; Transplant Hepatology gastroenterologists concentrate on the harder or more specific cases within that range, and tend to see a higher volume of patients with cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis, and post-liver-transplant care.
