Dr. Umaprasanna S Karnam, MD

Doctor Karnam and his staff are amazing. He will go to great lengths to help you with any problems that you have. He is kind and funny. I would highly recommend Doctor Karnam to anyone. Myself and a few if my family members go to him. I have been going to him for over 10 years.

Doctor Karnam is very caring and is willing to listen to your problems. Is staff is very nice too. I have been going to him over 10 years and he always listen to my concerns. He is willing to go the extra mile to make sure your get the best care. I would recommend Doctor Karnam to anyone to which I have with my son and husband.

Dr Karnam and his staff are always so amazing to help me when my health has been well and especially not well. He has literally saved my life, when i was down to 80ish pounds and another doctor said I was fine those other doctors did not listening to me something was wrong. Until I saw Dr Karnam, at the first visit he had a good idea what was wrong from my heath history, confirmed the diagnosis with a colonoscopy and had me on my way to controlling a flare Of UC. I’ve called in and they have had me in quickly for an office visit if I’m having a GI issue. . even with getting a colonoscopy getting done soon (like 2-3 days). Dr Karnam and his staff are all amazing amazing and I have sent many people I know to him for GI related issues.

Dr Karnam is an amazing doctor! Every experience both myself and my family has had with him has been awesome! I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a great Gastroenterologist!

I have been under the expert care of Dr. Uma Karnum for an incredible 15 years, and I can say with absolute certainty that he is one of the finest gastroenterologists in the field. I initially sought his expertise for issues related to Ulcerative Colitis, and ever since, he has been a pillar of support and guidance for me. What strikes me most about Dr. Karnum is his boundless knowledge. Not only is he incredibly skilled clinically, but he also makes a point to educate his patients about their conditions. He has done an excellent job of helping me understand the complexities of Ulcerative Colitis, equipping me with the tools I need to manage my condition effectively. Besides his clinical expertise, Dr. Karnum is incredibly personable. He listens attentively to all my concerns, making sure to address each one with utmost care. His ability to make his patients feel heard and valued is truly commendable. One of the greatest conveniences about being Dr. Karnum's patient is his accessibility. Whether it's an urgent medical question or routine follow-up, he is always easy to get ahold of. This kind of availability is so reassuring, especially when dealing with a chronic condition that can be as unpredictable as Ulcerative Colitis. To sum it up, Dr. Uma Karnum combines clinical excellence with an extraordinary bedside manner, making him the go-to gastroenterologist in my book. He has significantly improved my quality of life and has been a trusted healthcare partner for a decade and a half. I could not recommend him more highly for anyone in need of gastroenterological care. Thank you, Dr. Karnum, for 15 years of impeccable care and understanding. Here's to many more years of good health under your excellent guidance!

Dr. Karnam is the best doctor!! Our family is very thankful to him! Dr. Karnam has been taking care of my father and mother for many years! Just recently my father was admitted to the hospital for bleeding and Dr. Karnam was so caring and concerned that he called us and texted us every day to see how my father was doing! After my father was discharged from the hospital Dr. Karnam has helped us to plan a treatment for my dad, we haven’t had any problems scheduling or with the staff, everyone at this office have been friendly and helpful to us!! Thank you Dr. Karnam for your professionalism, expertise and caring!!

I love this man!!! I have been in the hands of Dr. Karnam for 12 years, ever since I first started having GI issues. He saved my life by determining the root cause of my initial bile duct obstruction and rushing me into surgery, instead of sending me home with pain meds like the previous ER/GI doctors. All of my GI issues (and my families) have always been promptly and expertly diagnosed and succesfully handled by Dr. Karnam. I have unfortunately found myself in the hands of other doctors/hospitals (rushed to the nearest ER) plenty of times, none of them come close to Dr. Karnam. Don't just go off internet ratings...walk up to any doctor in the state of UT, drop his name, and watch the reaction. This man is a legend in our community!

Dr. Karnam was the answer for me. Having issues caused by Psoriatic arthritis, Dr Karnam has changed my digestive system in an amazing way! He listened to my issues and has incredibly improved me to the point of being “normal” again which I thought would not ever be possible. He’s an amazing Doctor and I truly have benefited from his wealth of knowledge.

Dr. Karnem is always there to answer questions and take care of all my needs. If it wasn’t for him with my Crohn’s I wouldn’t be here today. He has stayed up and all the latest treatments since my case is not an easy one and no medicines have worked his office. Staff has been great and the wait time to get in to see him has not been long

Dr Karnam has been my medical provider for over 15 years and I'm glad he's still around. Dr Karnam has great bedside manners he listens to the patient and their concerns and needs. It's nice to see a provider also updating your file with any changes that you've had throughout the year with your other doctors. He checks everything from a to z. The staff at this location are very friendly helpful and eager to make you feel comfortable. Thank you to Dr Karnam and his staff.

Dr Karnam is the best doctor I’ve worked with. He is full of knowledge and listens to his patients. It’s rare to find a doc that will gameplan and strategize for the right care. I am grateful for the quality of life I know have because of Dr Karnam.

Outstanding professional with a deep caring for his patients! I can not say enough positives about him and his caring for me and my family.

I have had the privilege of working with many of the nation's best physicians at multiple health science centers and universities over more than three decades and none has surpassed Dr. Karnam. He is exceptionally responsive to patient concerns and uses science-based evidence guided by more than 29 years of practice experience to find the best solutions. He works effectively and proactively with other practitioners involved in providing care so that all are "on the same page" with the plan for treatment. He personally checks with my wife and me to monitor our progress and shows incredible compassion for our situations and health challenges. The quality of care he provides is incredible. He has earned our trust!! Dr. BH

If you’re looking for the best GI doctor in Utah, here he is!! This past year has been an absolute rollercoaster until finding the gut whisperer and being referred to Dr. Karnam by my father who has also been a patient for a few years. He has been of great help in creating a healing plan for me and getting me on the uphill side of this seemingly never ending battle! I highly recommend him.

Stop wasting your time with other doctors and RUN to Dr. Karnam. He is the BEST, most caring doctor you will EVER find. In a world full of doctors that only treat you as simply another patient, Dr. Karnam takes time to find the true problems and cares about you far beyond the exam room. His nickname of the Gut Whisperer fits him to a T. He has turned from being just our GI doctor to a lifelong family friend who we trust our very lives with. We will continue to refer our friends and family to Dr. Karnam. Our family will be forever grateful to this wonderful man.

Uma is an extremely good listener and has a great way with people. He is also always there when you need him and never too busy to act on your behalf. Highly recommend him for his results and patient oriented solutions.

I am so appreciative of dr Karnum. He is a dr that really cares about his patients. He is absolutely so intelligent and takes on a huge burden to find the solution when others have failed. He has literally saved my life on a couple of occasions through the years. He never gives up and tries so hard to keep my conditions under control. I and my family will never go to anyone else. He is amazing.

great bedside manner takes care of my whole family very gentle with procedures

Dr. Karnam is a brilliant physician, not only in his specialized field of expertise, but in interrelating all fields of patient wellness, as nothing happens in isolation in the human body. He is a very quick read, with an immense body of medical knowledge; a very smart man. He keeps well abreast of the latest in medical advances, findings and treatments and does not rely solely on traditional methods as many physicians do. Most importantly, he listens to what the patient feels their biggest issues and detailed symptoms are - rare these days as many doctors tend to dismiss their patients, when it is the patient who knows their body best. Dr. Karnam is acutely aware of the big picture, patterns, inverse relationships, how labs and interrelated body systems affect one another. He processes with quick intellect. Years back I suffered from puzzling labs/autoimmune manifestations only he was able to diagnose after many practitioners misdiagnosed. When later chronic issues arose, Dr. Karnam again to the rescue. I continue to see him as he is a very trusted professional for myself and family. Whether in his field or out of the ordinary, Dr. Karnam sees each situation as a challenge, and surely can be of help. He is professional, pleasant and positive. You can almost see his brilliant mind working. The finest in the area.
