Sterling Hospitals and Medanta Hospitals have opened a new liver outpatient department (OPD) clinic in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India.
A report by ETHealthWorld.com said that this new all-inclusive facility aims to provide specialised liver care to patients in the region.
Patients in Ahmedabad can now access dedicated medical care once a month from the Medanta Institute of Liver Transplantation and Regenerative Medicine.
The clinic will address various serious liver conditions, including bile duct cancer, gallbladder cancer, liver failure, portal hypertension, and liver anomalies in adults and children.
Medanta Institute of Liver Transplantation and Regenerative Medicine liver transplantation unit chairman and chief liver transplant surgeon Dr Arvinder Soin said: “Liver diseases can be seen in children as a congenital problem or in adults due to fatty liver either due to alcoholism (30%) or diabetes, high cholesterol, obesity or unhealthy and sedentary lifestyle.
“Even teetotallers are not spared and get affected with cirrhosis of the liver. So, it’s extremely crucial to get the ailment identified early, followed by specialist treatment. Medanta is confident in providing excellent service to the people of Gujarat, as evidenced by its strong understanding of the subject and track record of over 4300 liver transplants.”
