What to Expect During Your Appointment

Your first visit begins with a conversation. We take time to learn about your health history, your symptoms, and any concerns you may have.
After a physical exam, your hepatologist will review your recent test results and may recommend additional testing to assess your liver function and confirm a diagnosis.

Depending on your situation, your evaluation may include:

  • Imaging Tests: Ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, or noninvasive fibrosis measurement to assess the liver for scarring.
  • Laboratory Testing: A comprehensive blood panel to evaluate liver and kidney function, screen for infection, and check genetic markers.
  • Liver Biopsy: A small tissue sample examined under a microscope to clarify a diagnosis.
  • Additional Testing: Specialized tests ordered as your care requires.

Meet Our Hepatology Team

Throughout the process, we explain each step in plain language and answer your questions, so you feel informed and supported. Once we confirm your diagnosis, we build a personalized treatment plan designed around your health, your goals, and your daily life.

Our Liver Clinic is staffed by experienced physicians and providers who have dedicated their careers to liver health. Together, they bring specialized training, active research, and a genuine commitment to compassionate care for every patient in Northeast Ohio.
