I struggled with a hip for about 8 years. Becoming unbearable I scheduled a meeting with Dr. Patel. I admit that he is a busy man and difficult to meet with. His diagnosis was a hip replacement. I scheduled it and had the surgery on 9/16/22. I've waited for a year to write this review. My hip replacement was quick, painless, and has been a total success. I've had several previous surgeries which were just as serious but a lot more painful (knee, shoulders, hand, and hernia). Since my surgery I have had "zero" pain. I don't know how he does it but, it couldn't have gone better. Thanks Dr. Patel, Sherwood
