About hepatologist (liver specialist)s in Rajshahi
A Hepatologist, or liver specialist, diagnoses and treats diseases of the liver, gallbladder, bile ducts and pancreas. In Bangladesh, where viral hepatitis and fatty liver are very common, patients usually visit one for hepatitis B and C, fatty liver disease (NAFLD), jaundice that will not settle, cirrhosis, abnormal liver function tests (raised SGPT/SGOT), gallstones, ascites (fluid in the abdomen) and liver-related complications of diabetes or alcohol. Many hepatologists are gastroenterologists or medicine specialists with extra liver training. In a consultation, the doctor reviews your symptoms, jaundice or itching history, alcohol and medication use, and existing reports, examines your abdomen, and then advises tests such as LFT, hepatitis B and C screening, ultrasound of the upper abdomen, FibroScan or, if needed, a liver biopsy. You should see a hepatologist if you have yellow eyes or urine, long-standing right upper abdominal pain, a fatty liver or hepatitis result on a health check-up, swelling of the abdomen or legs, or a family history of liver disease. Early review can prevent progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer.

Frequently asked questions about hepatologist (liver specialist)s in Rajshahi
How much does a Hepatologist (Liver Specialist) cost in Rajshahi?
In Rajshahi, a hepatologist's consultation fee is usually between 500 and 2,000 BDT, with most senior liver specialists charging around 800-1,500 BDT for a first visit. Follow-up visits are often cheaper (about 300-800 BDT) if you return within the doctor's review window. Tests such as LFT, hepatitis B/C screening, ultrasound or FibroScan are billed separately by the diagnostic centre.
How do I book an appointment, and what should I expect?
You can book a hepatologist in Rajshahi by calling the chamber or hospital directly, or by reserving a slot online through ChamberBD. Bring all previous reports, especially any LFT, hepatitis B/C results, ultrasound or FibroScan, plus a list of your current medicines. The doctor will ask about jaundice, itching, alcohol use and family history, examine your abdomen, and usually order blood tests and an ultrasound before starting or adjusting treatment.
Who is the best Hepatologist (Liver Specialist) in Rajshahi?
The best hepatologist in Rajshahi depends on your specific liver problem. Look for a doctor with a postgraduate degree (MD in Hepatology or Gastroenterology, or FCPS/MRCP in Medicine), good experience with hepatitis and cirrhosis, and attachment to a reputable hospital. On ChamberBD you can compare verified liver specialists in Rajshahi by qualifications, years of experience, chamber location, fees and patient reviews to choose the right one for you.
Can I get an online or telemedicine consultation with a Hepatologist?
Yes. Many hepatologists in Rajshahi now offer online video or phone consultations, which work well for reviewing test reports, discussing hepatitis B/C management, repeating prescriptions and follow-ups. Telemedicine is convenient if you live far away or have ongoing treatment. However, a first visit, abnormal jaundice, vomiting blood, or abdominal swelling usually needs an in-person examination and tests, so the doctor may still ask you to come to the chamber.
