In medical school I would never have imagined that I would choose Hepatology as a specialty. However I was fortunate to train at the National Institutes of Health and UCSF and was mentored by some of the preeminent Hepatologists in the world. As such I have developed a great interest in liver disease and liver transplant. I find great satisfaction in making a difficult diagnosis and seeing my patients transform after their liver transplant. My research interests are viral hepatitis and liver cancer. Dr. Lutchman is highly rated in 19 conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Hepatitis, Hepatitis C, Fibrolamellar Carcinoma, Liver Transplant, and Hepatectomy. Dr. Lutchman is board certified in American Board Of Internal Medicine. Dr. Lutchman is currently accepting new patients.
