      Dr. Sanjaya K. Satapathy is the medical director of the Center for Liver Disease and Transplantation at the Northwell Transplant Institute, program director of Northwell's Transplant Hepatology Fellowship, and professor of medicine at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell.His path to medicine began in India, where he was inspired by his father an engineer with a passion for homeopathy to pursue a career in healthcare. He earned his medical degree from Veer Surendra Sai Medical College, followed by fellowship training in gastroenterology and hepatology in the early 2000s. During that time, he witnessed the profound need for liver transplantation in India, where access remained scarce.While presenting his research at a conference in the United States, Dr. Satapathy was drawn to the opportunities and possibilities for advancing transplantation in America. He decided to continue his career in the United States, completing additional residency and fellowship training before serving as a transplant hepatologist in Memphis. In 2019, he was recruited to Northwell.It was a dream to begin from zero and build a transplant program that could be a model not just for the area or the state, but for the country, says Dr. Satapathy. Within only a few years, we've been able to achieve that goal, because Northwell has all the elements and resources to be one of the best programs in the nation. The expertise we have is unparalleled, with a collaborative team that encompasses all levels of care.The program was founded just in time for a huge surge in demand for liver transplants in the area, he adds. Liver disease and other liver issues are on the rise, making the need for an extensive program crucial for those in the New York region. Part of the program's strength is innovation. For example, Northwell is utilizing an approach that allows donated organs to be safely preserved for a longer period of time, which means needed organs can travel longer distances even from as far away as Hawaii. Northwell is also running several clinical trials on transplant medications and operates a robust transplant hepatology fellowship program to train the next generation of doctors a program Dr. Satapathy launched.I'm passionate about this work, and particularly about my patients, he says. I see every patient as my family, and my focus is on what I can do next to help them. Dr. Satapathy is highly rated in 26 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis, Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH), Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, Liver Transplant, and Endoscopy.

      James Park, MD, is the co-director of the Center for Liver Disease and Transplantation at the Northwell Transplant Institute, and the chief of hepatology at North Shore University Hospital, Long Island Jewish Medical Center and Lenox Hill Hospital. He joined Northwell after 14 years at NYU Langone Health, where he was the director of transplant hepatology. During his internal medicine residency at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, Dr. Park developed a keen interest in hepatology, particularly within Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities. I noticed a disproportionate number of Asians with late-stage liver diseases and liver cancer. They were often diagnosed late, some too late, he says. This realization led him to his calling. In 2022, Dr. Park established the Asian Liver Health Program at Northwell Health. Through outreach with local cultural organizations, free education and screenings, he works to dismantle the barriers to earlier diagnoses and treatment of liver cancer, cirrhosis and hepatitis B among the diverse and rapidly growing AAPI population. At the Center for Liver Disease and Transplantation, care is coordinated with multilingual and multidisciplinary specialists. Having everyone in the same location streamlines the process for patients and maximizes communication between doctors. At the Center for Liver Disease and Transplantation, we provide 360-degree care for each patient to ensure no stone is unturned in their immediate and ongoing treatment. Dr. Park also launched an Advanced Care Provider (ACP) fellowship in transplant hepatology to train the next generation of nurse practitioners and physician assistants. He is a strong believer in using ACPs to help address the shortage of providers in the field of hepatology. Educating ACPs and helping patients are privileges for which I am very grateful. Dr. Park is highly rated in 19 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Hepatitis, Cirrhosis, Hepatitis C, Liver Transplant, and Gallbladder Removal.

      What is a hepatologist? 

      A hepatologist is a doctor who specializes in diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, and pancreas. They are sometimes referred to as “liver specialists.” While hepatologists manage liver-related conditions, they typically do not perform surgeries. Instead, they work closely with surgeons when procedures like liver transplants or biopsies are needed. 

      Why am I being referred to a hepatologist?      

      A referral to a hepatologist usually happens when your primary care doctor suspects or diagnoses a liver-related condition that requires specialized care. This could include abnormal liver function tests, symptoms of liver disease (like jaundice or fatigue), or chronic liver conditions such as hepatitis or fatty liver disease. Hepatologists are experts in managing these conditions and can help create a treatment plan to improve your liver health.  

      What is the difference between a hepatologist and a gastroenterologist?    

      While both hepatologists and gastroenterologists treat digestive system issues, their focus areas differ. Hepatologists specialize in liver-related conditions, including diseases affecting the bile ducts, gallbladder, and pancreas. Gastroenterologists treat a broader range of digestive tract disorders, such as acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome, and colon problems. For advanced or chronic liver issues, a hepatologist is the go-to specialist. 

      What tests does a hepatologist perform?  

      Hepatologists use various tests to diagnose liver conditions, including: 

      • Blood tests: These evaluate liver function, check for infections like hepatitis, and measure enzyme levels. 
      • Imaging tests: Ultrasounds, CT scans, or MRIs help visualize liver abnormalities. 
      • Liver biopsy: A small tissue sample is taken to assess liver damage or diagnose diseases. 
      • FibroScan: A specialized ultrasound that measures liver stiffness, often used to detect fibrosis or cirrhosis. 

      These tests help identify the cause and severity of liver problems to guide treatment. 

      What are the symptoms of a damaged liver?  

      Common symptoms of liver damage include: 

      • Jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes) 
      • Fatigue and weakness 
      • Dark urine or pale stools 
      • Abdominal pain or swelling 
      • Nausea or vomiting 
      • Loss of appetite 
      • Easy bruising or bleeding 
      • Itchy skin 

      Symptoms can vary from person to person depending on the cause and stage of liver disease. If you experience these, it’s important to see a doctor for evaluation. 

      When should I see a Hepatologist in New York, US?

      There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

      • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
      • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
      • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
      • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
      • You want a second opinion.  

      What should I consider when choosing a Hepatologist in New York, US?

      It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

      How does MediFind rank Hepatologists in New York, US?

      MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

      What types of insurance are accepted by Hepatologists in New York, US?

      Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

      How can I book an appointment online with a Hepatologist in New York?

      MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Hepatologist search results page. 

      Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Hepatologist?

      Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

      How can I prepare for my appointment with a Hepatologist in New York, US?

      Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

      • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
      • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
      • Family history of disease 
      • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
      • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
      • List of questions and concerns 
      • Your insurance card 

      You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

      What questions should I ask my Hepatologist?

      Here are some sample questions: 

      • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
      • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
      • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
      • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
      • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

      How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Hepatologist may know about?

      MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

      MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals.
