About me
Dr. Genyk is director of the Adult Liver Transplant Program and regional director of the MedStar Health Hepatopancreaticobiliary Program. He is a board-certified, fellowship trained surgeon with 25 years’ experience in the field.
Dr. Genyk’s areas of special expertise include:
- Surgical management of locally advanced pancreatic cancer involving the arteries and veins
- Complex resections of conditions affecting the liver and bile ducts
- Liver transplantation, including transfusion-free transplantation and living donor transplants
- Minimally invasive and robotically assisted liver, bile duct, and pancreas surgery
Dr. Genyk takes a multidisciplinary, holistic approach to caring for patients, answering questions and explaining patients’ diagnosis and treatment options so they can be active participants in decisions about their care. He is fluent in English, Ukrainian, and Russian.
His research interests include innovations in live donor liver transplantation, new approaches to surgical treatment of extensive tumors of liver and pancreas, minimally invasive surgery for hepatobiliary and pancreatic diseases, liver regeneration, and immunological tolerance in transplantation. He has been widely published in peer-reviewed journals, served as the principal investigator on numerous studies, and has lectured nationally and internationally on liver disease and transplantation and pancreatic disease and surgery.
Dr. Genyk earned his medical degree at the Medical Institute in Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine. He completed surgical residencies at the Medical Institute in Kyiv, Ukraine and the University of Alabama at Birmingham Medical Center. He also completed a fellowship in kidney transplantation at the Republican Transplant Center in Kyiv, Ukraine, and a fellowship in multi-organ transplantation/hepatobiliary surgery at Mount Sinai Medical Center, New York.
When he’s not working, Dr. Genyk enjoys spending time with his family, reading, and taking part in outdoor activities.
