Talk With Your Doctor Guide

Whether you’ve been recently diagnosed with MASLD (NAFLD), MASH (NASH) or have been living with your condition for years, talking with your doctor about your condition and management can be intimidating. However, it’s very important to ask questions and make sure you understand what's going on inside your body. After all, this is your body and you are in charge of how you care for it after leaving the doctor’s office. 

We created two Talk With Your Doctor guides, one for NAFLD and one for NASH, to help you start or get better at having meaningful conversations with your doctor about your diagnosis and management plan. Please be aware that not all doctors have expertise in NAFLD and NASH to answer these questions to your satisfaction. Hepatologists (liver specialists) will be more familiar with NAFLD and NASH. 

Click below to access the downloadable and printable document for your condition. We recommend reading over the questions before your visit. There is also space at the end to jot down any other questions you'd like to ask.
