Most people seeing at psychiatrist are having a difficult time...that's why they are there. Dr. Patel has a very professional attitude and although his accent is a little difficult it is certainly not impossible. He listens well and knows what he is doing. Everyone may not like him but I think he is great. Thoughtful and helpful. He does care. That's what his patients need. That' what I needed. Fine professional highly recommend.

Dr Patel, is highly skilled, knows his Profession. He may not agree with you all the time, but has your best interest at heart. Office maybe always full, but each patient seen in 10-15 minutes of appointment. Unheard of in his Profession. Amazing how many Patients he can see in a day. Be honest with Him, and he will go out of his way to Help you. Partner is just as good, with great Personality too. If you need someone in his field, I would recommend to all. His Medical Interns have learned well, and he demands from his Students the same service you expect from Him..Thanks Doctor P., John

Dr Patel is the worst practicioner, of any discipline that I have ever encountered. Does not pretend to care. Asks you for the details of your prescription needs as he is filling out prescriptions. I have had several visits where there wasn't even eye contact!! This is a med factory. I am concerned about anyone who is in any kind of fragile condition thinking that this is "care" Please seek another MD You deserve better. Good Luck.

Very patient and understanding. He took the time to listen and ask questions. Follow-up appointment was scheduled immediately.

AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS!! Dr. Patel is just awful. If you can actually understand what this idiot is saying through his horrible Indian gibberish, he wont understand you because he doesn`t

This doctor should have his license revoked! After waiting almost an hour I sat with him in his office telling him my problems only to have the phone ring constantly or him make calls to get someone else admitted. He talked more on the phone than he ever talked to me. I highly doubt he was even listening.By that being my first visit ever to a psychiatrist it made me look at them a different way and I never have been back to one since. I figure I can solve my own problems than go through that embarrassment and money pit ever again.By the way, it has been three years since that day and it has no doubt scarred me for life.
