Hepatology Services and Resources
Loyola’s hepatology program has earned a national reputation for excellent liver disease care. Our specialists are leaders in their respective fields of hepatology and transplant hepatology.
Liver cancer develops from genetic changes in liver tissue cells that cause them to multiply uncontrollably and form tumors. Learn about liver cancer and how Loyola's experts can diagnose and treat it.
Loyola Medicine is nationally recognized for exceptional, integrated care for patients with chronic and end-stage liver disease and failure. We are known for taking on the most challenging cases and delivering outstanding outcomes.
A liver transplant is a life-saving treatment for individuals with end-stage liver disease. Learn about Loyola's outstanding transplant outcomes and how we take on the most challenging cases, some of which are turned away by other centers.
While the wait time for a deceased-donor transplant can last several years, living liver donation can reduce wait times to months and lead to better outcomes. Learn about Loyola's living liver donor program.
