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.

Excellent
Dr. Patel has been my primary care physician since 2009. He is an excellent primary physician. Communicates well, is always available to chat after hours if needed, and has great bedside manners.

My Mom died in his care. He said my Mom had virus/vertigo but she was really stroking. My Mom could have possibly been saved had she received the MRI she desperately so needed. But waisted time and a poor diagnosis allowed my Mother to fully stroke. I couldn't see my Mother without a hazmat type suit because he said she had a virus. We lost so much little time we had left with our Mother. We had to stay away from her because he said she had a virus. After she passed he then changed his doctor notes to protect himself. Zero stars.

Doctor Chinmay K Patel is a rare breed of doctors who actually listens to his patients. Not that I’m complaining, but that is same reason why it is very hard to get an immediate appointment. Empathy, and communication skills are very essential in every profession. Combined with great technical knowledge, they can give you success and happiness in work. Doctor’s or Engineer's, a large part of our job involves working with fellow humans.

I would highly recommend Dr. Patel to anybody. He was my doctor for four years. He helped me get sober, he helped me lower my sugar, he helped me with depression, and he helped my husband with his low testosterone levels. He is patient, kind, passionate about what he believes in, knowledgeable, willing to listen, empathetic, available, personal, affectionate and different than other doctors. I was so sad when I had to move from Illinois because I know I will never find a doctor like him.
