Specialty: Liver Disease and Ascites
Prior Location: University of California Irvine/Sand
The Liver Specialty Center is located in the?Spectrum Medical Plaza?Suite?106 at?15825 Laguna Canyon Rd.?We are conveniently located?at the corner of?Laguna Canyon Road?and Waterworks.
The Liver Specialty Center specializes in hepatology, the study and treatment of liver disease, and liver related problems such as ascites, variceal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy and primary liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma ? HCC). Dr Hoefs has been a hepatologist in Orange County for 30 years as Director of the Liver Disease Program at the University of California Irvine. He now seeks to employ his skills in the management of liver patients outside of UCI. The cause of liver disease determines the treatment so diagnosis is essential for hepatitis B (HBV), hepatitis C (HCV), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), non-alcoholic hepatitis (NASH), primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), autoimmune chronic active hepatitis (ACAH), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), hemachromatosis (and other forms of iron overload) and numerous other less common liver diseases. Some patients have more than one cause.
We particularly emphasize the treatment of chronic hepatitis C since we can cure 50 % of patients, and with the new antiviral agents that will be released later this year, as many as 70 %. We are expectantly awaiting these new agents and are signing up patients for "triple therapy" treatment as soon as they are available. Hepatitis B is a particularly difficult decision for treatment despite very effective medications since treatment at the wrong time may prolong treatment unnecessarily. We believe in education of the patient so they are aware of all the issues pertinent to their care.
