Consultation and treatment for chronic liver diseases

Our team, your partners in care

Our clinic offers a comprehensive, team-based approach to liver care, supported by skilled nurses, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, dieticians, and counselors. This diverse team works together to address all aspects of liver health, from medical management to nutrition and mental health support. Our clinics serves the catchment area of over 2 million people in southern Alberta.

Central to our personalized care approach is the in-clinic use of FibroScan, a non-invasive technology that quickly and accurately measures liver stiffness and fat content. This provides valuable insights into conditions such as fibrosis, cirrhosis, and steatotic/fatty liver disease. By combining cutting-edge diagnostics with a patient-centered, team-based approach, we deliver tailored care plans that empower our patients on their journey to better liver health.
