Yatin Shah, M.D., started his first practice at a location just north of the current location in 1989. The practice was then known as Ranch Medical. The office was very modest, but Dr. Shah was able to provide quality health care.

Dr. Shah’s expertise and experience include Internal Medicine, Geriatric and Board Certified, and Medical Director at Sunny Hill Nursing Home and Joliet Terrace Nursing Home. He is on staff at Provena St. Joseph Medical Center and Silver Cross Hospital.

The Chicago St. office, a 16,000 square foot building, opened in January of 2000 and was renamed Primary Care Joliet to more accurately reflect the one-stop shopping approach that this community clearly needed.

Subsequently, the Wilmington office opened in 2001.

Following the opening of the Wilmington office, a third office was opened on Joliet’s West Side.

Dr. Shah, aware of the need for quality health care for women has also added services of other physicians, nurse practioners and physician assistants.

The current office staff has grown to over fifty which includes Primary Care Physicians, Nurse Practitioners, Physical Therapy, Licensed Nurses, Lab and X-ray Technicians, Medical Assistants, Billing, Medical Records and Clerical.

Among the many services that are provided include, X-ray, Diagnostic Ultrasound, EMG, EEG, Nuclear Stress Test, Echo ultrasound, Bone Mineral Density, Nuclear Scans, 24 Hr. Holter Monitor and Lab.

Dr. Shah, recognizing the need for health care and his commitment to the community, arranged for an Urgent Care Facility to open at the Chicago St. location. The service provides walk-in care for urgent needs six days a week.
