Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Patel is very thorough!

I am a 48 year old male w/ Endocrine problems; They include hypothyroidism and borderline glucose intolerance. Dr Patel spends a good deal of time w/ me trying to find out specific ways to calm if not cure my ailments. Family history is an issue so that is a contributory factor that we take into account . Very thorough doctor that ordered additional screening/ tests to rule out other Thyroid disease. I highly recommend this caring doctor. A +
