Ami Patel
100 Duke Health Cary Pl, 
Cary, NC 

Overview

I see a wide range of gastrointestinal disorders in clinic as well as perform upper endoscopies and colonoscopies. I have a particular interest in conditions that affect the pelvic floor and defecation. This includes anything from incontinence to difficulty having a bowel movement due to problems with the muscles and nerves of the pelvic floor. I believe communication is key and that it is important to get to know each patient as an individual and what they hope to achieve for their health.

Her top areas of expertise are Bowel Incontinence, Encopresis, Turcot Syndrome, Familial Adenomatous Polyposis, and Endoscopy.
