Nishant Patel, M.D.
Gastroenterologist
About Nishant Patel, M.D.
Why did you choose to specialize in Gastroenterology?
I chose to specialize in gastroenterology because of the ability to integrate medical knowledge with procedural components for managing acute and chronic illnesses. This field of medicine allows me to provide direct patient care and build rapport with my patients and families, starting at their initial visit. Additionally, there are always new discoveries being made in this specialty (i.e. Hepatitis C medications, therapeutic endoscopic procedures), which makes it an exciting field to be in.
Do you have a specialty of interest within GI?
I especially enjoy taking care of patients with diseases of the bile duct and pancreas. In addition to completing my general training for gastroenterology, I completed an additional year of training specialized in advanced therapeutic endoscopy, which included endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopractreatigram (ERCP). Both of these procedures allow for diagnosis and treatment of complicated conditions such as pancreatic cancer, biliary strictures and bile duct stones.
Where did you study?
Undergrad: Emory University, Medical School: University of Alabama in Birmingham, Internal Medicine Residency: Barnes-Jewish Hospital / Washington University, GI Fellowship: University of Texas Southwestern.
What certifications do you hold?
Board Certified in Internal Medicine and Gastroenterology.
What do you and your family enjoy doing in your spare time?
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two young children. We enjoy traveling and any outdoor activity, including golf and running.
Do you have any special honors or recognitions in your medical career that you would like to share?
I am a contributing author to textbooks in the field of gastroenterology (i.e. The Washington Manual of Gastroenterology). I have also authored research articles published in multiple medical journals and given presentations at national conventions on topics ranging from liver cancer to advanced procedures.
Do you fluently speak any other languages in addition to English?
Gujurati.

Reviews
Dr. Patel and his staff explained the procedures and made me feel very comfortable before going into the surgery. The nursing staff was also excellent and my entire experience was excellent.
Everyone on Dr Patel's staff was amazing in every way from check in to check out. They all were very informative, kind and proficient. I strongly recommend Dr Patel and his team at Lonestar Endoscopy..
Lone Star Endoscopy was excellent in all aspects. All of the staff were friendly, caring, and professional. Dr. Patel met with me before and after the procedure answering any questions that I had. He was outstanding. I highly recommend Lone Star Endoscopy.
Very impressed with the care and professionalism

This was my first visit with Dr. Patel. We discussed my MRI results and how we will go forward. He answered all my questions and put me at ease. I was very happy with my visit. The personnel at the front were very professional and nice.
Usually when people say "The best in the city." you usually think "I hope so!" Dr. Patel proved this to me directly. In the short time I have been seeing him he has been clear, helpful, attentive, and down to Earth. Highly recommend this whole office for ANY gastrointestinal issues or concerns!
Dr Patel and the rest of the staff at the surgery center are wonderful. They are all there for you every step of the way. They really care for their patients. I highly recommend!!!
I would highly recommend Dr. Patel and here is why… My husband has had the same issue for years and we never got a proper explanation or a remedy or a solution. Prior to moving to Texas we were in California and were under the belief that we had great healthcare and great access to doctors. It took a 40 minute appointment with Dr. Patel to put our mind at ease put a plan in place that we have been needing for years. Dr. Patel, it’s thorough, knowledgeable and very patient. We are so very grateful to have him now on my husband‘s medical team.
Given that having a colonoscopy and endoscopy are not pleasant experiences, Dr. Nishant Patel made my time in the facility go very well. Great bedside manner, explained everything prior to and after the procedure in a way that I could easily understand and he put me at ease. I highly recommend Dr. Patel.
11/10 recommend Dr. Patel. I’ve seen him for 10+ years now and he’s by far the best Dr.
I have seen. He’s very patient, kind and explains everything in a way I understand. Lets me whine and complain about having to have colonoscopies, and never rushes me. He’s the best!

I had the pleasure to meet Dr. Patel in the hospital: his bedside manner is great. He spends the time to be thorough and allows for questions and concerns to be a part of every conversation. I am pleased with the change from my other GI that I absolutely loved but she was just too far away.

Dr. Patel took the time to review my file before my first doctor's visit with him. He listened to my issues, and didn't make me feel rushed. I also appreciated the fact he wasn't quick to start ordering a whole bunch of tests. I will be recommending Dr. Patel to anyone looking for a great gastro doctor.
Dr Patel and his staff were awesome working me into their schedule! Excellent procedure communication on what to expect and valuable team process with follow up check up call next day.
Dr. Patel and his staff were all wonderful. The follow up call when I got home was very appreciated. This is a doctor and his staff that' are truly exceptional.
