Really enjoyed the discussion about my back problem. Explained my condition and that my MRI result clearly and so I didn't have to worry about the results. I got better with time just like he said.

From the first time I walked in he was very disrespectful to me and then tried telling me nothing wrong with my back. 6 bulging discs along with other abnormalities doesn't sound like nothing wrong. He actually tried bending me backwards then pushed, yes pushed me away stating that there was nothing wrong with me. He doesn't deserve to be a doctor to any patients at all. He's a fake and lies.

Dr. Patel is an excellent Dr with much empathy. He is extremely competent and will never offer services not needed.

I have been a patient of Dr. Patels for about 6 years. Have seen him for different medical problems over the year. He actually takes the time and listens, reads the reports & actually goes over the mri's, scans and discusses with you in detail. That good

I have had nothing but an incredible experience with Dr. Patel. He has cared for me for over 10 years and I have referred many of my friends and family members to him. All pleased with his care and level of expertise. He has served our community for many years and I really enjoyed my experience. Sounds like some previous review were unhappy that their expectations weren't met.

Questioned an item on an outpatient surgical authorization form. Instead of giving me a simple answer, Patel said it was what he decided to do (no answer to the 'why' I was asking for). He then went into an abusive rage about how he had explained it to me at last appointment (untrue) and didn't I trust him? Entire room of nurses and pre/post surgical patients (around 20 or so) were in silent shock. I fired him on the spot. Never encountered such a self-centered physician in my life. Does not like being questioned about his decisions about your body, has a bit of a "God" complex, and thus shows no concern about his patient nor the issues needed to be discussed.

The fip side to spending enough time with each patient is that he is frequently very backed up already within 30 minutes of opening each day.
