Biography
I am Megan Karrick, DO, and I specialize in liver disease and liver transplantation at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. My practice focuses on caring for patients throughout every stage of the transplant journey, as well as on treating a wide range of liver conditions including fatty liver disease, hepatitis, cirrhosis, and alcohol-related liver disease.
I chose a career in transplant hepatology, because I value the opportunity to care for patients during some of their most challenging times. I am passionate about providing education, guidance, and compassionate care to help patients better understand their conditions and feel confident in their treatment plans.
As a transplant hepatologist, I care for patients from the initial diagnosis of cirrhosis and advanced liver disease through transplant evaluation, liver transplantation, and post-transplant follow-up care. I also treat patients with hepatitis B, hepatitis C, fatty liver disease, liver cancer, and other complex liver conditions.
One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is building long-term relationships with patients and their families. I appreciate the opportunity to support patients throughout their transplant journey and witness the life-changing impact that transplantation can have on their health and quality of life. My goal is to ensure that every patient feels informed, supported, and comfortable while receiving personalized treatment tailored to their needs.
