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.

So caring
Dr. Patt never rushes my visits. She gives a thorough exam and provides updates on the latest in research. I’m so grateful for the excellent care she has provided me.

Human and Humane!
Just 10-14 days prior to a major, month-long trip (and our first since 2019) I learned that I might have cancer in my spine. Dr. Patt's superior team helped me to get the tests I needed and get in to see Dr. Patt in time to know whether the trip would happen. There were complications getting the test results... not significant, but ... well... our tension was high.... When I got in to see Dr. Patt, she greeted me with 'Have a great time in New Zealand.' Human and Humane... what more could you ask for.

Dr Patt is an excellent oncologist. She started treating me in 2011 and I’m still receiving the best of care with her and the TX Oncology team. Highly recommend.

Dr Patt’s Exceptional Care
Telehealth
Visits with Dr Patt are always personal-never cookie cutter. She is focused on specific concerns and-or treatments regarding my medical plan. She is very easy to talk to and shows interest and compassion. I appreciate her constant encouragement and obvious concern for me living my best life.

I trust Dr. Patt. She is knowledgeable, cares and when I ask a question she responds and explains it clearly. These are frightening times being Stage IV it’s important to know and feel you’re in good hands.

Mixed Feelings
Dr. Patt is very knowledgeable. She is published and an expert in the field. However, her bedside manner leaves much to be desired. She seems to be in a hurry every time I see her. She runs late often but, based on how little time she spends with me, I don’t see why. She also writes her note in my chart DURING the appointment. She dictates what she is typing during the appointment while I basically state at her. Because of these issues, I switched doctors and am much happier.

Knowledgeable, Trustworthy and Compassionate
I've been a patient of Dr Patt since 2011. Unfortunately I've been diagnosed with breast cancer twice, first in 2011 and then in 2020. I value her medical recommendations because she always has answers to all of my questions when it comes to the breast cancer results that I receive. She is very compassionate but is straight forward. It's concerning sometimes but that is the best approach for me. I have total trust in Dr Patt with her medical advice because if a certain medication isn't working she doesn't waste any time and she's ready to move to the next steps! If I'm not doing well she will also get me in the office asap! I truly admire and respect Dr Patt!

Exceptional care and kindess
Dr Patt is compassionate and brilliant. I am a dentist with many friends within the medical community. Dr Patt is THE ONE that was recommended for my personal medical needs. She and her team are professional and kind. Visits are managed promptly and efficiently (you won't be kept waiting forever which eases one's anxiety).

The Best!
Dr. Patt has been a valued member of my "team" ever since my breast cancer diagnoses. I greatly appreciated that she was able to schedule my first appointment the next day after I called. I'm now in year 3 since surgery and I am seeing her only on an annual basis. She is the best!!

Incredible Doctor
Cancer is the worst but Dr. Patt is the best! She is kind, caring, and brilliant. When I was diagnosed with cancer I was almost more worried about finding the right doctor to lead my cancer fight. I was lucky to hear of Dr. Patt from a friend. She, along with Texas Oncology, made my journey through cancer treatment the best it could be. I wish no one got cancer, but if you do, choose Dr. Patt.

I am a patient of Dr. Patt for 10 years now. She is the best kind of physician you can have: very positive and kind, highly knowledgeable, always staying on top of things (latest scientific breakthroughs, treatments, etc.), taking the time to listen to her patients, finding the right balance between treatment and quality of life. Whether you just got your first cancer diagnosis or are a cancer patient who recently moved to Austin – if you get Dr. Patt as your oncologist, you have hit the jackpot.
