Mayo Clinic adult gastroenterologists have joined Mayo Clinic pediatric gastroenterologists in evaluating and treating patients with complex liver problems in Eau Claire. The specialized services complement the gastroenterology treatment already available on the Luther campus of Midelfort Clinic part of Mayo Health System in Eau Claire. I look forward to working closely with the gastroenterologists at Midelfort Clinic to assist in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with liver diseases, says Dr. Kamath.
Gastroenterologists evaluate and treat disorders of the stomach and the intestine.
Patients with liver diseases will benefit from the evaluations and recommendations made by Mayo Clinic physicians specializing in unusual diseases of the liver, says Dr. Joseph Motto, a Midelfort Clinic gastroenterologist. A Mayo Clinic pediatric gastroenterologist, Dr. Jean Perrault works closely with Midelfort gastroenterologists on the fourth Thursday of every month. He assists in evaluating and treating children suffering from common constipation, diarrhea or vomiting, bowel disease concerning growth problems, gastroesophageal reflux, and liver and pancreatic disorders. The outreach program allows physicians to effectively build upon the diagnostic procedures and evaluations together, says Dr. Perrault. While in Eau Claire, Dr. Perrault also works with gastroenterologists at Midelfort Clinic to efficiently diagnose and manage liver diseases such as hepatitis and cirrhosis.
