I very highly recommend Dr. Patel! In fact, I give him the highest recommendation possible. He truly knows the art&science of psychiatry and how to accurately diagnose and treat the individual. He is warm and caring and is willing to go that extra mile to provide the highest quality service. It was important to me to find a physician who was approachable and human like Dr. Patel, and not someone who merely nods at you and says, "Mmm Hmm". He has high acclaim in the psychiatric community and did his residency at Stanford University. You can be assured that you are in great care if you are a patient of his.

Finding a psychiatrist in San Francisco was very difficult. A friend recommended Dr. Patel. He was kind and patient, was able to take care of my problem and answer my many question without judgement. I am grateful for his care.
