Dr. Patil explained how the entire process was going to go from start to finish in detail. I was amazed at how quickly I recovered with no pain…there was some discomfort but no pain.

I have and will continue to recommend my friends and family to Dr. Patil. I had both of my knees replaced, one in Jan. of 2023, and one in Feb. 2024. From the beginning process, through the actual surgery Dr. Patil and his team ( from the front office personal up to and including Dr. Patil ) were professional, knowledgeable, kind and helpful. Both of my knees have turned out great! These surgery's have given me my life back, I have no more pain in either knee, and I am able to do things that I thought I would never be able to do again.

Outstanding!! My family and myself could not be more pleased with Dr Patil and his team. The concern, compassion and care was phenomenal. Dr Patil is very detail oriented and made sure we all understood what was going on. He and his staff always asked is we had any questions. We never once felt like asking questions was a problem. I am So beyond grateful he was recommended to me. I feel like I could not have gotten any better care all around. I am walking pain free and that is a blessing :)

Great surgeon with a great staff. If they could only make the pre-op Mend taste better. I could not be happier with the results. I was playing pickleball after 6 weeks and a day.

Had a partial knee replacement 1/31/23. Dr. Patil and the staff at the office and hospital were all caring, attentive and helpful. Would most definitely not only recommend him to others, will most definitely go to him if any other knee/hip surgeries are needed. THANK YOU to Dr. Patil! Back to where I was before I fractured my knee.
