Mary Ann Huang
Dr. Huang is a Chicago native who has spent the last 16 years in the state of Michigan. She completed gastroenterology and transplant hepatology fellowships at the University of Michigan and has worked primarily as a transplant hepatologist for the last 12 years at the University of Michigan, Henry Ford Hospital, and Beaumont Hospital.
Dr. Huang’s practice will encompass all of gastroenterology and hepatology, including a continued focus in patients with cirrhosis and liver transplant. She also has a long-standing interest in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, hepatitis C, and autoimmune liver disease along with medical education.
Her philosophy as a physician is to serve as an empathetic guide for patients as they navigate through their GI and liver problems, and she strives to provide them with as much information as possible to make educated decisions about their care.
Outside of work, Dr. Huang enjoys spending time with her family. She tends to gravitate towards adventurous pursuits, including downhill skiing and mountain biking and is a retired member of the Detroit Derby Girls.
