Referrals
Doctors can refer their patients to our Surgery for a range of HPB and transplant assessment procedures. Referrals can be made for HPB surgery, Liver Transplant Assessment, Kidney Pancreas, Pancreas and Islet Transplant Assessment. Our team of experienced surgeons and specialists are on hand to provide the best care and advice for each patient.
We provide comprehensive pre and post-operative care to ensure a fast and successful recovery. See below for our referral process:

Please contact the surgeon's office directly. You can find the contact information for each surgeon at the bottom of this page.

For alcohol-associated liver disease, there is no minimum period of abstinence to accept a referral.
