Dr. Snehal Raman Patel

I would like to tell you my experience, and hopefully, this review will help you to choose a competent and ethical surgeon. I consulted Dr.Patel in Aug 2022, I was not happy with the appearance of my implant and I wanted to improve it, I had an implant on tooth # 8, and his recommendation was to redo the whole process again, meaning take my implant out, and perform a bone graft after the gum healed he then would install a new implant, providing me with a better results. These procedures take time and are very costly. I decided to trust his judgment and do the procedures. He took my implant out and did a bone graft, I paid for a retainer, $300+ retainer, and they told me that they would fix it if the retainer broke during my treatment. Unfortunately, my retainer broke, I called and told them, and they said that they would get back to me, I called again because it was hurting my gum and it was my front tooth, and they ended up telling me that they couldn't replace it, I was confused and… I told them they would not fix or provide me with a new one, to seek another provider because the person who made mine was no longer working with them. I was disappointed with how they dealt with this matter, I paid them for a retainer and because they did not have a person to make retainers they told me to seek elsewhere. The second thing I needed to deal with was insurance, they submitted the wrong code and I had to go through an intense process with the insurance for them to pay for my bone graft. I went in for my implant, I paid the balance due that day before going inside, and they applied anesthesia, I was waiting and the secretary went in and told me a balance was due from the previous bone graft, I was confused and I said the insurance should cover, they said I need to pay or they could not proceed, this person already applied anesthesia and they just now telling me about a balance I had, I ended up paying around $2000k more that day. Later on, the insurance paid me after I found out it was their fault for submitting the wrong code. The third and final horrifying experience was the result of the bone graft, this surgeon permanently damaged my gum tissues leaving me looking like a monster, I am beyond traumatized by the results, I consulted two other gum specialists paying out of pocket and they told me my gum tissue was gone permanently. Dr. Patel initially said he would cover any cost to repair and offered to refund me what I paid out of pocket, I provided him with the estimate and this Dr. ghosted me, yes you read this right, ghosted me, when I called the office, they said to have a lawyer contact him. Please seek another provider, Dr. Patel ruined my smile and now I have to seek other treatments to repair the damage he caused, and on top of that, he is a liar who lacks ethical standards.

Staff seemed nice enough and office was clean. But the estimate was misleading and they overcharged for consultation and for the amount of anesthesia. Will not refer family and friends.

hes a joke

Rude staff

First, I never thought I would be writing a THANK YOU note to Dr Patel and his ENTIRE staff. I appreciate the care received during and after the installation of rods for my future implants. NO PAIN..NO complications. So please pass on to your staff "BZ" to all. Well done!

I like the staff. Reception is sweet at both locations. I had to go see Dr. Patel around 4-5 times. Diagnosis, surgery, follow up. Another surgery for the same thing, another follow up. Apparently he misdiagnosed, which I'm not annoyed about. It happens. I'm annoyed that he forgets or won't call me back. I went to a regular physician see what the issue could be. I called his office 3 times in 2 weeks to reach him, all times he was away/busy (again, I understand, he has to see patients.) What annoys me is that after calling 3 times, he still can't take the time to call me back, even at his convenience.

No pain during the extraction

Thank you for working with me.

Thank you

Awesome job
