Hepatology
Hepatology is the specialty relating to the liver, gallbladder, biliary tree and pancreas. All gastroenterologists are trained in both gastroenterology as well as hepatology, although some have a particular interest in liver disease.
Common conditions that hepatologists can manage include:
- viral hepatitis,
- liver disease due to alcohol and drugs,
- non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD),
- autoimmune hepatitis,
- biliary cirrhosis, and
- primary sclerosing cholangitis.
We have gastroenterologists who can provide hepatology services at all five Adelaide locations, as well as a number of country areas.
Gastroenterologists with a particular hepatology interest include:
- Dr John Bate (Calvary Adelaide Hospital)
- Dr Marc Le Mire (480 Specialist Centre, Calvary Adelaide Hospital and Tennyson Centre)
- Dr Alex Rodgers (Flinders Private)
- Dr Abdul Shaikh (Western Hospital and Tennyson Centre)
