Reviews
I returned to AZ Digestive Hlth after about 10 yr break due to insurance change. I was so happy to come back. Dr. Patel is an amazing doctor who I have seen and has done my procedures. He definately is amazing! I mostly saw Laurie Peterson PA back in the day and recently started up with her again. It was like I never left. She is so smart, thorough and on top of stuff as my brain slows down a bit in life. It really took the pressure off me and my anxiety. I wish she was cloned to be my PCP, Endo, Urologist! The office staff is amazing as well. I am honored to be with such a caring top notch facility. I highly recommend.
Dr Patel is patient listening carefully. He is knowledgeable and offers otc options for treatment.
I have been seeing Dr. Patel for 13 years. His diagnosis is always correct even without any procedures or tests. He’s easy to talk to, he listens to you. The office staff and medical assistant are always very accommodating. I wish I could give this group 10 stars.
My recent colonoscopy was well coordinated and the people involved were ultimate professionals. I have been going to Dr. Patel for about 15 years and his care, knowledge and bedside manner have always been exceptional.
I can't say enough about Dr. PATEL. He is a class act. A wonderful bedside manner and so professional. The staff at the facility are so great. They are caring thorough and seem to really love helping others. The whole system runs on time so efficiently and friendly. You Cannot beat Dr patel and his staff.
I was referred by my son who is a patient. Let me say I was very impressed from start to finish. Very professional, attention to details, very interested in my health and well being. I was made to feel very special and unique.
Hands down the best GI I’ve met. Their entire operation is a blessing. It took me years to find a doctor that heard me and took an active approach in trying to help me. Dr Patel even makes sure I go to hospitals (if needed) where he is able to practice so he and his PAs (may be wrong in their title, apologies) can physically put eyes on me! The ONLY downside is that you can almost never get the office to answer and voicemails aren’t responded to but you are able to message through the patient portal and those nurses are very responsive.
Very helpful & friendly. Made me feel very comfortable.

Excellent service with staff and doctor!
Dr. Patel was very professional, who listened and answered questions to my concerns going in and went over my results in great detail. I was/am very pleased and lucky to have him as my doctor.
The staff is very friendly and they know me by
my first name. Dr. Patel is very informative and made me feel secure in the fact that I am in remission for ulcerative colitis and he assured me my colonoscopy results are very good. He said "I'll see you in six months!"

Extremely good experience for a sensitive topic and very professional. Dug deeper into possible problems and created a game plan to address and fix digestive issues.
Very pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. He found i have Celiac and provided me with a Gluten free Recipe book. Very kind. I highly recommend him
I really like Dr Sumir Patel. He listened to me, answered my questions. He has a very calming way that makes you feel safe to talk about these personal issues about your body.
Dr Patel is very professional. Dr Patel listened to me and my concerns each appointment. He is very thorough and knowledgeable. He included me in decisions about my care every time. I highly recommend Dr Patel.
Starting from the front office staff until the end of the visit every person was extremely nice, helpful and professional. Dr. Patel was very informative and made sure I understood everything he explained. I would recommend this office.
Dr. Patel was very nice. I did not feel rushed like I usually do when I have a doctor’s visit. He wanted to make sure all my questions were answered. As usual the prep is worse than the procedure but all went smoothly. Seemed like I was only out for 5 minutes!
Very efficient & professional!!!
Great doctor. Great bedside manners.
