Fatty Liver concern

My husband was recently told he has fatty liver during a routine health screening in Singapore. He's not experiencing many symptoms, so we're unsure how serious it is or what the next steps should be. Has anyone here seen a specialist for fatty liver? Any recommendations in Singapore?

Ah, I feel you, my husband had a similar scare last year, so I totally get that mix of worry and confusion! From what I've heard from other mums whose husbands went through this in Singapore, most consultants recommend starting with a gastroenterologist or hepatologist; Dr Philip Pang Boon Cheong is someone a friend mentioned positively as a specialist who explains things really well. The good news everyone keeps saying is that fatty liver often responds really well to lifestyle changes, losing even five to ten percent of body weight and getting more exercise can make a big difference, so it's not always as scary as it sounds. Most people also swear by cutting down on sugary drinks and alcohol, drinking lots of water, and keeping active; it's actually manageable once you have a plan! That said, definitely get your husband to follow up with a proper specialist appointment so they can check his specific situation and rule out anything more serious, better to have peace of mind, right?
