The Asian Liver Center is only possible because of the hard work of the motivated individuals on our staff. Our staff members and interns have spent countless hours making a tremendous effort towards increasing hepatitis awareness in our community. Thank you to everyone who has helped us in educating the community and special thanks to the staff. Our Outreach Office is located at S085 in the Grant Building of the Stanford University Medical Center, by appointment only. Reach us by fax at (650) 723-0006.
