In response to the growing need for a full-service pre-liver transplant evaluation clinic in central and southern Illinois, we are pleased to offer Northwestern Medicine Liver Transplant Care in Hoffman Estates, Illinois.

Located in the Elmhurst Center for Health, our focus on community outreach, benefits patients and their physicians by providing many of the pre-liver transplant services closer to home. Our goal in offering such convenience is that it will lead to an excellent patient experience and a successful liver transplant.

Liver transplant care

We are available to see the following types of patients at this outreach clinic:

• Complex liver disease patients: Patients requiring a consultation or second opinion have the option of being evaluated at a clinic closer to home.
• Potential liver transplant candidates: The initial visit to determine transplant eligibility can be done at the clinic. Once patients are identified as candidates, they will need to be evaluated by the liver transplant team at Northwestern Memorial Hospital before being listed for a transplant.
• Patients on the liver transplant waiting list: From the time patients are listed until transplantation, they may choose to have basic follow-up visits either at Northwestern Memorial Hospital or at the satellite clinic.
