Team approach: With a condition like Wilson's there may be issues in more than one organ system. Therefore, you would be taken care of by a team of doctors with your primary care as the coordinator. A gastroenterologist would be involved to help with any liver issues and a neurologist may be consulted about any brain effects. Less often a cardiologist or endocrinologist could be involved.

Multidisciplinary: A multidisciplinary medical team would serve a patient like this the best. You may need a GI specialist, neurologist, psychiatrist and PCP to work together to help patient with chronic issues.
