Our Program

The Liver Wellness Research Program is deeply committed to providing the highest quality compassionate care for patients with liver diseases, specifically Metabolic Dysfunction-associated Steatosis Liver Disease (MASLD). We can only achieve the best quality of care through continued research and discovery of the most up-to-date practices and technologies.

Help The Liver Wellness Research Program Make a Difference.

Your philanthropic support ensures our program can continue to grow and succeed. Philanthropy lays the foundation for what we do. Our supporters are co-visionaries who help us to envision new possibilities and to improve treatment outcomes.

How can you help?

Donating to The Liver Wellness Program will help us in our efforts towards advancing care for liver disease and Metabolic Dysfunction-associated Steatosis Liver Disease (MASLD).

Donations will be utilized in a wide variety of ways. One way donations will be used to increase awareness. Our program will attend tabling events to raise support, hand out flyers, and provide informational materials. The second is for outreach efforts. Medical research is an increasingly important aspect of advancing health care and how we reach out to individuals to increase participation is a huge part of completing studies. The final way donations will be used is for piloting new and innovative studies looking to collect small pieces of data before applying for larger grants.
