???? Names of Specific Liver Specialists

• I didn’t find details naming an individual hepatologist (“Dr So‑and‑so”) at Steve Biko. Most listings reference the department or clinic rather than individuals mail.meditrader.co.za+6University of Pretoria+6Reddit+6.
• On SASOG’s directory, there is a Dr. Sumaiya Adam listed at Steve Biko Academic Hospital under Gauteng’s hepatology listings. While not confirmed if this is the liver specialist, the address listed is Steve Biko sasog.co.za — it suggests she is associated with hepatology or related gastro services at SBAH.
