In the Orlando area

Our Orlando listings cover a wide stretch of Central Florida: Orange County, Seminole County, Polk County, Volusia County, Brevard County, Osceola County, Lake County and Marion County. That reaches Daytona Beach and Melbourne on the Atlantic side, Lakeland to the southwest, and Ocala and The Villages to the northwest.

AdventHealth and Orlando Health are the system names you'll see most around Orlando, and Lakeland Regional Health appears in Polk County. Large independent groups include Mid-Florida Cardiology Specialists, The Cardiovascular Center of Florida and Daytona Heart Group. For mental health care, look for Park Place Behavioral Health, Circles of Care, SMA Outpatient in Daytona and Peace River Center.

Because this area is so spread out, start with the town closest to you. Orlando has the largest group of listings, but Lakeland, Kissimmee, Ocala, Melbourne, Winter Park and Daytona Beach each have many offices of their own. Lake Mary, Clermont and Altamonte Springs are good places to check if you live in the suburbs.

Liver care here centers on Orlando, where AdventHealth has gastroenterology and hepatology offices in East Orlando and at Innovation Tower. It also has offices in Apopka and Daytona Beach. Orlando Gastroenterology and Digestive and Liver Center of Florida in Sanford also appear. Choices thin out quickly outside Orlando, so ask a gastroenterologist about referrals.

How to choose a hepatologist

A hepatologist is a doctor who focuses on the liver, gallbladder and bile ducts. People see one for hepatitis B or C, fatty liver disease, cirrhosis, autoimmune liver disease, primary biliary cholangitis, liver cancer and abnormal liver tests [2]. Most get a referral from a primary care doctor or a gastroenterologist.

Know that many GI doctors treat the liver. Hepatology is part of gastroenterology. Most hepatologists trained first as gastroenterologists, and many general GI doctors manage common liver problems such as fatty liver disease and hepatitis C. That's why some doctors in this directory are also listed as gastroenterologists. If your liver problem is mild or stable, a GI doctor may be all you need.

Start with the kind of liver care you need.

  • General hepatologists manage long-term liver conditions, track liver health over time and treat hepatitis.
  • Transplant hepatologists care for people with advanced liver disease, before and after a liver transplant.

Check credentials. The American Board of Internal Medicine certifies doctors in gastroenterology and in transplant hepatology. A doctor must be certified in gastroenterology before taking the transplant hepatology exam. You can look up any doctor's certification for free on the ABIM website [1]. Our listings show the credentials doctors report in the federal NPI registry, but we don't verify board certification.

Ask about transplant ties if your disease is advanced. If you have cirrhosis, ask whether the practice works with a liver transplant center. A transplant starts with a referral to a transplant center, where a team decides if you're a candidate [3]. A practice linked to a center can make that step smoother.

Confirm insurance before you book. Practices change the plans they accept, so call the office or check your insurer's directory. HMO plans usually need a referral first. Medicare Part B covers medically necessary specialist visits; you typically pay 20% of the Medicare-approved amount after your deductible [6].

Plan for distance. Liver specialists are fewer than other doctors, and many work at large hospitals. You may need to travel for a first visit. Ask whether follow-up visits can be done by video or with your local doctor.

Know when not to wait. Cirrhosis can cause bleeding from swollen veins in the esophagus or stomach [4]. Vomiting blood or material that looks like coffee grounds, or black, tar-like stool, needs emergency care, not an appointment [5]. Call 911.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between a hepatologist and a gastroenterologist?

A gastroenterologist treats the whole digestive system, including the liver. A hepatologist focuses mainly on the liver, gallbladder and bile ducts. Most hepatologists trained as gastroenterologists first, and many GI doctors treat common liver problems. If you have advanced liver disease or may need a transplant, a hepatologist is usually the right choice.

Do I need a referral to see a hepatologist?

It depends on your insurance. Most HMO plans require a referral from your primary care doctor before they'll cover a specialist visit. PPO plans and traditional Medicare usually don't. Many liver clinics also ask for a referral and your recent blood tests or scans before they book a first visit, so call ahead and ask.

What happens at a first hepatology appointment?

Expect questions about your symptoms, medications, alcohol use and family history, plus a physical exam. The doctor will review your liver blood tests and may order more labs, an ultrasound or a special scan that measures liver stiffness. Some people need a liver biopsy. Bring your recent test results and a list of your medications.

What is a transplant hepatologist?

A transplant hepatologist cares for people with advanced liver disease or liver failure. They help decide whether someone may need a new liver and care for them before and after a transplant. In the U.S., they're certified through the American Board of Internal Medicine, and they must be certified in gastroenterology first.

How do I know if a hepatologist is board certified?

Look the doctor up on the American Board of Internal Medicine's free "Verify a Physician" tool. It shows whether a doctor is certified in gastroenterology and in transplant hepatology. Our listings show the credentials doctors report to the NPI registry, but we don't verify certification ourselves.
