“I have hepatitis A. Should I see a hepatologist to manage this condition?”
I was diagnosed with hepatitis A by my gastroenterologist. Should I continue seeing my gastroenterologist for this condition or is it better to be treated by a hepatologist in this case?

If the gastroenterologist is comfortable with treating acute Hepatitis A as this is usually a self-limiting condition, then you will not need a referral to a Hepatologist. The gastroenterologist should be checking your liver function tests periodically to ensure they are resolving.
