Hepatology Services
Hepatology is a specialized field of medicine that deals with studying, diagnosing, and treating liver diseases. It involves examining and managing liver diseases and disorders that may arise from various factors, including viruses, alcohol consumption, autoimmune diseases and genetic disorders.

Hepatology and gastroenterology
Hepatology is closely related to gastroenterology, which focuses on the digestive system as a whole. The liver plays a crucial role in the digestive process, as it produces bile that helps to break down fats and absorb nutrients. Our hepatologist works closely with gastroenterologists to provide comprehensive care to patients with liver and digestive system disorders.
If you or a loved one is experiencing liver-related symptoms or has been diagnosed with a liver condition, don't hesitate to contact Firelands Health Gastroenterology. Our team of experienced gastroenterologists is committed to providing personalized care and advanced treatment options to help manage your condition and improve your quality of life.
