Comprehensive Liver Care for a Healthier Life

The liver is a vital organ responsible for detoxification, metabolism, digestion, and immune support. Liver diseases can be silent and progressive, often going undiagnosed until they reach an advanced stage. Dr. Nadeem Parvez, a leading gastroenterologist, specializes in the diagnosis, management, and treatment of liver diseases, ensuring personalized care for every patient.

Common Liver Diseases Treated by Dr. Nadeem Parvez

1. Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD & AFLD)

  • Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD): Caused by fat buildup in the liver, often linked to obesity, diabetes, and high cholesterol.

  • Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (AFLD): Due to excessive alcohol consumption, leading to liver inflammation and damage.

  • Treatment: Lifestyle modifications, weight management, dietary changes, and medications if needed.

2. Hepatitis (A, B, C, D, and E)

  • Viral infections that cause liver inflammation, leading to acute or chronic liver disease.

  • Treatment: Antiviral medications, vaccinations (for Hepatitis A & B), lifestyle modifications, and regular monitoring.

3. Liver Cirrhosis

  • Advanced scarring of the liver due to chronic liver diseases like hepatitis, fatty liver, or alcohol abuse.

  • Symptoms: Fatigue, jaundice, swelling in legs and abdomen, confusion.

  • Treatment: Medications, dietary changes, liver transplant evaluation for severe cases.

4. Liver Fibrosis

  • Progressive scarring of liver tissue caused by chronic liver damage.

  • Treatment: Lifestyle changes, anti-fibrotic medications, and regular monitoring to prevent progression to cirrhosis.

5. Liver Cancer (Hepatocellular Carcinoma – HCC)

  • A serious condition often linked to hepatitis infections, cirrhosis, or chronic alcohol use.

  • Treatment: Surgery, liver transplant, targeted therapy, chemotherapy, or minimally invasive procedures like TACE (Transarterial Chemoembolization).

6. Autoimmune Liver Diseases

  • Conditions like Autoimmune Hepatitis, Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC), and Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) where the immune system attacks liver cells.

  • Treatment: Immunosuppressive medications and supportive care.
