Dr. Seetharam is a board-certified gastroenterologist and transplant hepatologist with Arizona Digestive Health in Scottsdale. In a distinguished academic career, he rose to UNOS Medical Director of liver transplantation at one of the highest volume centers in the country. He has performed extensive clinical research with over 100 published peer-reviewed studies, national abstracts and book chapters.
