Dr. Vinod Chandr Patwardhan, MD

Dr. Pat is a hero in medicine. Apart from that, he astounded a top surgeon at UC Irvine in using chemotherapy for a 4cm large malignant tumor prior to a surgical removal in his plan for me . Post chemo then, post surgery the surgeon said excitedly, "The tumor was completely eradicated. There was nothing there! Your oncologist did wonderful!" Gratefully, I asked Dr. Pat, "You have saved so many lives and are amazing. How do you do it?" Dr. Pat giggled , pointing upward and said, "I don't do it: HE does, He just let's me hang around."

Couldnt find a better Doctor in the United states.

Great physician

Dr. Patwardin is a wonderful doctor/oncologist. I had a severe gallbladder attack during the time I was taking Chemo.. and had to be taken to the emergency room. Dr. Patwardin came to visit me in the hospital. I was so happy to see him... because I was so worried about what effects the surgery would have and whether it would postpone my chemo. He answered all of my concerns and questions about this. When I went into surgery, my sister was there and alone...and very worried. Dr. Patwardin hugged my sister and made her feel like she wasn't alone. I never saw my primary care physician come to visit me. Or any other doctor... NOT even the surgeon who supposedly performed the surgery. He sent his STUDENT to check my wounds. But Dr. Patwardin was there for me. He conferred with the surgeon about my condition, and was there as support. He is the most caring and compassionate doctor I've ever had. And he is the BEST doctor I've ever had. And I'm 60 years old. So,… I've had a lot of doctors in my time.

I have had the pleasure of having him as my physician for over 25yrs. He is the most compassionate, trustworthy, devoted, Dr I have know. He is understanding. thoughtful, I am very lucky to have him as my physician..

Dr.Pat was so sweet and I wss on chemo 2days after I was diagnosed with stage 3 Breast cancer. He he f ought hard and gently pushed me to fight just a little harder and not only did I become cancer free I gained friends and I discovered his knowledge on medicine is unequaled.there just not enough Thank yous.

Dr. Pat helped me during the critical time of my life. His moral support always gave me courage and hope to life. God Bless him... he is the best.

Dr. Pat is the most kind, compassionate, caring and knowledgeable doctor I've ever met. My whole family including myself and especially my mom would not allow anyone else to treat her but him. He takes the time to listen to his patients and their needs. He doesn't put priority on HIS MONEY, HIS TIME, HIS NEEDS over his patients unlike most doctors.Dr. Pat cured my mom from breast cancer and is now helping her with her lung cancer. I have met hundreds of doctors in my lifetime but none ever like Dr. Patwardhan.It's unfortunate that he's gotten in trouble with the Medical Board and the Courts but even with all the accusations, we will always support Dr. Pat because of the great and unselfish human being that he is.

been seeing him for Thyroid cancer... why did I see him instead of my endocrinologist(dr aqeel)? because Dr Pat really cares while my endocrinologist ignored me for 6 month. The stuff is very and efficient, and dr helped me get through the worse time of my life through prescribing the right medicine, and also educated me psychologically that gave me confidence to go through everything. I don't care about the legal stuff about his illegal medicine... I truly believe he did it only to allow the same meds to be affordable to the poor. Thank you Dr Pat.

I was diagnosed as a stage 3B breast cancer. One of my treating physicians told he did not expect me to survive the cancer. I believe I am alive today due to Dr. Pat's treatment & skills as an oncologist. In spite of the brevity of my situation he was upbeat, positive & caring which definitely helped my emotional well being during such a difficult time. He remembers me personally & my health history. He spends as much time as I feel I need each time I have an appointment. Dr. Pat & his staff make sure I keep up on all the follow-up test to insure the cancer is not reoccurring. I adore this doctor & have been cancer free for 8 years.
