General Info

About Dr. Nidea Dr. Luis A. Nidea decided to become a doctor at eight years old. “Growing up in the Philippines, I helped my mother and father in their walk-in clinic adjacent to the house I grew up in,” Dr. Nidea says. “I liked watching them help people who came in to get medical treatment.” Dr. Nidea followed in his parents’ footsteps by becoming a gastroenterologist. He earned his medical degree at the University of Illinois at Chicago and completed his Internal Medicine Residency at Mercy Hospital and Medical Center. Dr. Nidea completed his Gastroenterology Fellowship at Cook County Hospital and John H. Stoger Jr. Hospital. “I am a healer and teacher,” says Dr. Nidea. “As a physician, I studied and trained to help diagnose and treat medical illnesses. As a teacher, I educate others on wellness and preventive health.” In gastroenterology and hepatology, there’s always an opportunity to do this. “I am passionate about preventing cancer of the GI tract and liver as well as treating inflammation of the GI system.” Dr. Nidea’s education and commitment to the Hippocratic Oath shape his practice philosophy. “I took a sacred oath to practice medicine with compassion and humility and provide for all persons regardless of gender, religion, color or financial ability,” Dr. Nidea says. “I count it as an honor and serve patients to the very best of my ability.” In his own words Who is or was the most influential person/role model in your life? Jesus Christ. What was your first job growing up? What do you remember about it? Librarian … I love to read books and preserve them. What is your favorite food? Movie? What was your best/worst subjects in school growing up? Medium-rare ribeye, Field of Dreams, psychology/organic chemistry. If you could sit down to dinner with anyone, alive or deceased, who would it be and why? Vincent Van Gough. I want to hear his feelings of depression and loneliness that allowed him to create his brushstroke into masterpieces. In addition to medicine, what are you passionate about? Medical missions and pickle ball.
