What do Transplant Hepatology Physicians do?

Transplant hepatology physicians specialize in diagnosing and treating advanced liver diseases, particularly those that may lead to or have resulted from a liver transplant. 

They provide care for patients before, during, and after a liver transplant, managing complex liver conditions and overseeing crucial aspects like immunosuppressive medications to prevent organ rejection. 

These physicians work as part of a multidisciplinary team, collaborating with surgeons, dietitians, and other specialists to ensure optimal patient outcomes.  

What they do

Collaboration: They work closely with a team of specialists, including transplant surgeons, interventional radiologists, and psychiatrists, to provide holistic patient care. 

Pre-transplant Care: They evaluate patients to determine their eligibility for a liver transplant, assess their overall health, and manage their end-stage liver disease leading up to the procedure. 

Post-transplant Care: They provide comprehensive long-term care to transplant recipients, monitoring for complications and managing immunosuppressive medications. 

Diagnosis and Treatment: They are experts in diagnosing and treating a range of liver conditions, including cirrhosis, hepatitis, liver failure, and liver cancers. 

Management of Complications: They treat side effects of immunosuppressive drugs and address any transplant-associated infections.
