Professor Luc Delrivière (UWA) is the Senior Surgeon for liver transplant and hepato-biliary surgery at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital since 2004. His work has played a major role in the expansion of liver and kidney transplant programs in WA, with activity in both areas having now more than doubled.

He is involved in clinical and experimental research programs at the Harry Perkins Institute. His extensive training in general surgery and cutting-edge transplant/hepato-biliary specialisation were completed in Brussels, Paris, Tokyo, Brisbane, King’s College Hospital in London and Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge between 1989 and 2004.

He has been involved in more than 1,000 liver transplants throughout his career. Prof Delrivière performs the most advanced and safe liver, bile duct, gallbladder, hernia and pancreas surgery at St John of God in Subiaco. His clinical approach is multidisciplinary and involves colleague oncologists, gastroenterologists, hepatologists and interventional radiologists.

Professor Delrivière's highly specialised surgical skills, developed in such a challenging specialty as liver transplantation, are offered to all patients - whatever the indication of their surgery may be.

In 2013 Professor Delrivière established “The Liver Centre” and “The Hernia Gallbladder Centre”. The team has since expanded and now offers highly specialised surgery for all upper abdominal organs. The team is now known as “The Surgeons Collective” which gives patients the benefit of a unique and centralised group including leading surgeons, specialist hepatologists (liver physicians), gastroenterologists and dietitians.
