Vishal Ghanshyam Patel

Dr Patel was assigned to me after I was life-flighted from Fort Bragg. I could not have asked for a more compassionate, gentle and skillful cardiologist for my procedure. His bedside manner is exemplary, and he took the time to include my husband by phone in our conversations. Unfortunately, I do not live in the Santa Rosa area, so I will not be followed by Dr Patel.

Dr. Patel spends a lot of time explaining the details of tests and surgery results in common language so that you can understand what he is doing and why. For a cardiologist, this is especially helpful. He doesn't talk over you or treat you like a child.

Could not have found a better doctor. He explains things very well and is a good listener. Great bedside manner.

I have been a patient of Dr. Patel since he arrived in Santa Rosa and he is outstanding in every way: thorough examination, friendly, not rushed, answers questions, informative, competent, and makes helpful referrals, if needed. Without any qualifications, I highly recommend him.

Board certified in both Cardiology and Internal Med, amazing personality and friendliness. Staff are simply amazing, all of them. I feel like I have won the medical lottery! If you have to have a heart doc, dont walk RUN to this place, NCMA Fountaingrove Cardiology.

By far the best Dr we have. We have seen many Dr's through the years and Dr Patel is by far the best for many reasons. We are not rushed, he answers all of our questions, is calm and listens. We don't feel like just a number he remembers us and takes his time. We never ever feel rushed and he explains things in a way we can understand. We are very very thankful to be under Dr. Patels care
