Amit Patel, M.D.
Gastroenterologist
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.”

I highly recommend her.
She was friendly, interested, and showed concern for my concerns.
I felt very safe and very confident with her as my doctor.
My health issues via her health instructions for me appeared to be positive. An impact of improved health was immediate and that meant the world to me.
I am still in good health and again, I am very impressed with Dr. Krishnamurthy, her intelligence, her wonderful persona, and her success with me and my health issues.
She is, in my opinion, simply amazing!
