There : There are many causes for abnormally high liver enzymes and some of them are more serious than others. It would be a mistake for anyone to tell you whether in this case the problem is a serious one or not, since we don't know the history or the time course. A hepatologist would be the best person to sort this out. However, hepatology is a subspecialty within gastroenterology, and if you can't find a hepatologist, a gastroenterologist would be fine as an initial point of contact.
