About Dr. Sirish Rao, M.D.

Why Gastroenterology?

I chose to specialize in gastroenterology because of my fascination with the intricate workings of the digestive system and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on patients' lives. The field offers a unique blend of procedural and clinical medicine, allowing me to perform various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, such as endoscopies and colonoscopies, while also developing a deep understanding of complex gastrointestinal disorders. By practicing gastroenterology, I can actively contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of conditions ranging from irritable bowel syndrome to gastrointestinal cancers, often preventing the progression of diseases through early intervention. This dynamic and evolving specialty enables me to merge my passion for hands-on procedures with a compassionate approach to patient care, ultimately enhancing their overall well-being and quality of life.

What Can Patients Expect?

Patients can expect an exceptional standard of care characterized by professionalism, compassion, and a patient-centered approach. I firmly believe in the power of collaboration, treating each patient as an integral part of their own care team. By fostering open communication and involving patients in their treatment decisions, I strive to create a harmonious partnership that promotes the best possible outcomes and a sense of empowerment on every step of their healthcare journey.

I definitely recommend Dr. Rao. He was very easy to talk to and wanted a full understanding of my situation before ordering labs & procedures.

I like the fact that Dr. Rao reviews my history before he enters the room. He spends quality time listening and asking questions especially when it comes to medication. Also, he has me come back every few months, not a year later. That's really important to me. I hope he stays around awhile, because I have been through a handful of doctors recently.
