South Asian Physicians in Miami

Miami-Dade County has a substantial South Asian medical community, shaped by decades of Indian, Pakistani, and Bangladeshi physicians entering US training programmes, completing residencies in Florida, and building practices across the county. The result is a wide geography of South Asian doctors covering primary care, specialist medicine, and academic health systems.

For South Asian patients who are more comfortable with a physician who understands cultural context — dietary practices, family-centred decision-making, or language — Miami's directory has options from Homestead in the south to North Miami Beach and beyond.

Jackson Memorial and University of Miami Health System Physicians

A significant cluster of South Asian physicians practises within the University of Miami Health System, operating from the main campus at 1611 NW 12th Ave (Jackson Memorial Hospital). This address appears across multiple specialties:

Dr. Prateek Kumar practices from a separate Kendall location at 8950 N Kendall Dr, Suite 407W, reachable at 786-596-3876. Dr. Minesh Mehta and Dr. Parthiv Patel both operate from 8900 N Kendall Dr (786-596-2000 and 786-596-7670 respectively), one of Miami's largest ambulatory medical campuses.

At 1611 NW 12th Ave, a range of South Asian physicians serve within the Jackson/UM system.

Insider Tip: For new arrivals to Miami needing to establish care with a South Asian physician, calling practices directly and asking specifically about availability and insurance panel status is far more reliable than online booking portals, which often show openings that have already been filled. Practices at major addresses like 1611 NW 12th Ave are also worth contacting directly through the University of Miami Health System's main line.
