About Amit Patel, M.D.
Dr. Patel has been in practice since 2017. He honed his expertise while treating the diverse patient population at the John H Stroger Hospital in Chicago before moving into private practice. He is especially experienced in advanced liver disease, GERD, and inflammatory bowel disease, but is well versed in all fields of gastroenterology. Dr. Patel’s top priority is to provide the highest level of care that is up-to-date and evidence-based for every patient. He emphasizes patient education and values establishing a long-lasting partnership with patients, based on respect, trust, and open communication.
“I was drawn to gastroenterology because it was one of the few medical specialties that combines my two primary interests: hands-on procedures and internal medicine. Gastroenterology provides me with the opportunity to perform challenging and complex endoscopic procedures while also treating the vast array of gastroenterological issues that are one of the most common sources of chronic pain and distress in adults, and I enjoy working with patients to find solutions to relieve and treat discomfort in their daily lives.”
“When visiting my office, patients can expect to be met with respect, empathy, and listened to. I prioritize patient-focused care and will work with the patient to develop a care plan that aligns with a high standard of medical care as well as the patient’s treatment goals.”

Reviews
In my encounters with Dr. Patel, I found a stark contrast to other experiences I’ve had in the medical field. Often, I’ve felt that doctors rush through appointments, seeming detached and at times even disregarding my concerns. However, with Dr. Patel, it was different. He showed a genuine interest in my well-being. His attentiveness and thoroughness in listening and responding to my concerns were truly exceptional. It was refreshing to interact with a doctor who took the time to engage deeply and address each of my questions with care and empathy.
Great experience with Dr. Patel! He is very attentive and thorough. Highly recommend!!
Dr. Patel and staff were very pleasant. I'm lucky to have access to such a knowledgeable doctor.
