About

The majority of my time is spent taking care of patients with all forms of acute and chronic liver disease including pre and post liver transplant patients. I have an active outpatient practice as well as perform endoscopy primarily on patients with GI bleeding complications of cirrhosis. I also attend on the inpatients hepatology consult service caring for patients with advanced liver disease and acute liver failure. I participate primarily in clinical trials involving viral hepatitis treatment and outcomes as well as new therapies for autoimmune and cholestatic liver diseases. I serve as the GI faculty member for the UNC HHT Center of Excellence.

I enjoy teaching residents, fellows and other medical providers. I started the UNC Transplant Hepatology Fellowship program and remain very involved with GI and Hepatology fellows’ education. I participate in a unique program to combat the rise in hepatitis C (HCV) in North Carolina. The Carolina Hepatitis Academic Mentoring Program (NC CHAMP) is a telementoring model designed to expand access for people infected with HCV particularly in rural and difficult to reach areas in NC.
