Meet Our Fatty Liver Disease Specialists

We specialize in caring for patients with metabolic liver disorders, including fatty liver disease (steatotic liver disease).

At UChicago Medicine, our hepatologists are internationally known for their expertise and helped write national guidelines on treating fatty/steatotic liver disease. Our team also includes an endocrinologist, who will check your risk for hormone-related disorders like diabetes that could harm your liver. We will also coordinate your care with our medical weight management and bariatric surgery team when needed.

Our registered dietitian, Sarah Kolb, will meet with you to discuss how dietary changes could benefit your liver health. She will work with you one-on-one to assess your nutritional needs and provide evidence-based recommendations through medical nutrition therapy. Together, you will develop an actionable plan, with additional follow-up appointments scheduled as needed.
