Hepatology is the branch of medicine that incorporates the study of liver, gallbladder, and biliary tree as well as the management of their disorders. The doctors specializing solely in this area are called Hepatologists or liver specialists.
The management of liver disease can be a major challenge not only for the patient, but for caregivers as well. It is important that someone suffering from liver-related disease or disorder find a facility that offers comprehensive services as well as a team of specialists that is required to treat complex conditions. Our team is actively involved in clinical national and international trials in hopes to offer better treatments in the future for patients with advanced liver diseases.
There are several conditions which patients can experience if they have advanced liver disease. Florida Hospital has experienced physicians and staff that offer comprehensive treatments and services. Below is a list of common tests, treatments, and disorders that we help care for:
In addition to the care provided by our physicians, your health care team will include care coordinators, social workers, financial counselors, dieticians, and pharmacists all focused on giving you the highest quality of care.
