🔥 HEPATOLOGY & LIVER TRANSPLANT SERVICES UPDATE

Dr Chetan Kalal, DM – Hepatology

Liver Disease | Transplant Medicine | Advanced Second Opinion

Who This Is For

This is not for routine acidity or casual “fatty liver grade 1” reassurance.

This is for:

• Cirrhosis (compensated or decompensated)

• Acute liver failure

• Portal hypertension & variceal bleeding

• Autoimmune hepatitis

• Complex hepatitis B / C

• NASH / MASLD with fibrosis

• Liver masses needing clarity

• Transplant evaluation & timing decisions

• Failed or confusing prior treatment plans

If the case is simple, many doctors can manage it.
If the case is complex, timing-sensitive, or transplant-linked — you need a hepatologist, not a guess.
