Fatty Liver Disease (MASLD & MASH)
As a dedicated fatty liver specialist in Birmingham, we provide clear, science-backed plans to stop and reverse fat build-up in your liver before it causes permanent damage. This includes specialist metabolic assessments and bespoke dietetic support.
Liver Cirrhosis & Complications
Advanced liver scarring requires highly specialised care. Your management is guided directly by a consultant who helped write the British national guidelines on managing patients with liver cirrhosis undergoing surgery.
Abnormal Liver Function Tests
If you have had a private blood test showing elevated liver enzymes, we will find out exactly why. We offer rapid, abnormal liver function tests and private assessments to uncover the true root cause, giving you total peace of mind.
Liver Cysts & Incidental Findings
It can be frightening to be told you have a spot or cyst on your liver after a scan. We safely check and monitor all incidental liver findings, ensuring nothing dangerous is missed. Our specialist radiologist Dr Sharan Wadhwani, can give a second opinion and arrange further investigations, including CT, MRI, ERCP and EUS.
Advanced Diagnostic Tests at Our Liver Clinic
We provide access to a wide range of diagnostic tests, recommended by specialist consultants, to accurately assess your liver health and identify underlying conditions.
Comprehensive Liver Blood Panels
Deep checks for liver function, inflammation, viral markers, and autoimmune serology that standard GP tests often miss.
FibroScan & Ultrasound Scans
Painless, non-invasive imaging used to precisely measure liver scarring, assess fat levels, and check your gallbladder.
Tumour Markers & Genetic Tests
Deep blood checks to screen for risks and give you total clarity about your liver health.
Endoscopy for Liver Complications
Advanced cameras to check the stomach and oesophagus for swollen veins, which is crucial for managing advanced liver cirrhosis.
Please note: the costs for these tests are separate from your consultation fee, so you always know what you are paying for.
Our Multi-Therapeutic Approach for Liver Care
