Love Your Liver campaign comes to Brum
Story posted/last updated: 17 January 2012
A consultant from UHB will be lending his expertise to a pop-up liver clinic visiting Birmingham as part of the national Love Your Liver campaign.
Dr Andrew Holt, Consultant Physician, Transplant Hepatology, is one of the health professionals supporting the British Liver Trust’s first ever national liver health awareness month in the UK.
On Wednesday 18 January he will be helping to man a session at the campaign’s pop-up liver clinic which will be in Rotunda Square, outside the Bullring Shopping Centre, from 10:00 – 16:00.
It will give members of the public the opportunity to be tested with a Fibroscan – a non-invasive test that measures the stiffness of the liver. They can also learn about steps they can take to achieve a healthy liver.
Love Your Liver 2012 aims to be the first national liver health awareness campaign that brings together the hepatology community to increase public awareness of the liver.
The pop-up clinic is also visiting London, Liverpool, Glasgow and Exeter this month.
