dr. Patel is someone who has little respect for patients, looks down on and scorns them. She is rude, disrespectful, but worst of all doesn't adhere to the standard of care for admistrating treatment with medication and causes harm with what she prescribes. Her boss at RIH knows this and chooses to do nothing. Those who've had issues with dr. Patel should write to the R.I. Department of Health board of medical licensure and discipline.

She will put you into withdrawals and not care. God sees what doctors like her do. He will judge.

This witch needs to learn how to be human and understand peoples background. Just because she is from a role model immigrant background don't mean anything. I hope in the near future her licensed for practicing psychiatry is revoked and also I pray to the Lord Almighty that the crap she has done to me and I am sure to other innocent patients that her own children will go through the psychological mess God Willingly!!!

She lacks empathy and compassion and is apathetic. You leave her office feeling demeaned.
