Dr Sherfi completed his Specialist Registrar training in Gastroenterology, Hepatology & General Internal Medicine across various sites in the UK including the Royal Devon & Exeter Hospitals, Cardiff Royal Infirmary & the University Hospital of South Manchester.
Dr Sherfi has extensive experience in treating various luminal and liver diseases as well as diagnostic and interventional Endoscopy including ERCP.
Dr Sherfi will be offering a Hepatology service from the Bon Secours Hospital Tralee for the first time and to support this we have purchased a Fibroscanner. This is a new non-invasive device which measures the elasticity of the liver and thedegree of fibrosis and cirrhosis. Patients who would benefit from such a scan include patients with fatty liver, chronic liver problems, diabetic patients, inherited liver diseases, alcohol excess and deranged liver enzymes; regardless of their age. These images will be reported by Dr Sherfi.
