Gastroenterologist
A gastroenterologist is a physician with special training in the evaluation and treatment of infants with problems of the digestive system (stomach and intestines) and liver. They might be asked to see patients when they have problems digesting food properly or for liver problems, such as hepatitis or cholestasis. To help in the diagnosis and care of these babies, tests, such as x-rays, liver function tests, or abdominal ultrasounds might be ordered.
