About Our Hepatitis Care Program
Treatment for Hepatitis is not one size fits all, which is why ID Care specialists create customized treatment plans for every individual with Hepatitis B (HBV) and Hepatitis C (HCV). Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C can lead to chronic, life-long infections, including liver cancer, liver failure and a potential need for liver transplantation. With early detection, many individuals can receive lifesaving care that can limit disease progression, prevent cancer deaths, and help break the cycle of unknowingly transmitting the virus to others. If you have, or suspect you have, hepatitis symptoms and want to learn more about treatments for this condition, contact ID Care for an appointment at 469-408-2531.
