Advanced Hepatology, Liver Transplant & Precision Second Opinions
Dr Chetan Kalal is a leading hepatologist and liver transplant physician in India, known for advanced liver disease management, complex diagnostic evaluation, transplant decision-making, and high-acuity inpatient hepatology care.
Recognised for evidence-based, clinically decisive liver care, Dr Kalal provides expert hepatology consultations for patients across India and internationally through both in-person and virtual platforms.
Most liver disease cases do not fail because treatment does not exist.
They fail because:
diagnosis is incomplete,
fibrosis staging is inaccurate,
transplant timing is delayed,
steroid therapy is wrongly started,
fatty liver is underestimated,
or advanced disease is recognised too late.
Dr Chetan Kalal focuses on:
diagnostic precision,
structured liver work-up,
transplant judgement,
ICU/IPD hepatology,
and long-term liver preservation whenever clinically possible.
Not every patient needs a transplant.
Not every abnormal liver test means cirrhosis.
Not every failed treatment is the end of the road.
