The hepatic and biliary systems play a vital role in digestion and overall health. The liver, gallbladder, and bile ducts work together to process nutrients, filter toxins, and help digest fats. When these organs are not functioning properly, patients may experience symptoms that affect energy, digestion, and long-term health.
Our specialists diagnose and manage a wide range of hepatic and biliary disorders. These include gallstones, bile duct obstruction, cholecystitis (inflammation of the gallbladder), liver disease such as hepatitis or fatty liver, biliary strictures, bile duct tumors, and complications related to pancreatitis.
You may benefit from evaluation if you experience persistent abdominal pain, especially in the upper right side, nausea or vomiting, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), unexplained weight loss, dark urine or pale stools, or ongoing digestive discomfort. Early diagnosis is important to prevent complications and preserve long-term health.
To evaluate hepatic and biliary conditions, our team may recommend imaging tests such as ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, or endoscopic ultrasound. We also perform specialized procedures such as ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography) to diagnose and treat bile duct blockages, as well as liver function tests and biopsies when necessary.
Treatment depends on the condition and may include medication, minimally invasive endoscopic procedures, lifestyle modifications, or surgery. For gallstones or gallbladder disease, laparoscopic removal of the gallbladder is a common and effective treatment. For bile duct problems, endoscopic procedures can often relieve blockages or place stents. Chronic liver conditions are managed with personalized care plans that may involve medications, nutrition guidance, and ongoing monitoring.
