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 listens carefully and explains test results and care instructions clearly. Highly recommend.

Car tires
The way Dr Patel explained the stages of kidney disease versus car tires, was absolutely understandable. Perfect analogy.

Very pleased with Dr. Patel
I had two appointments at Dr. Patel’s this week. The first was for lab tests. I didn’t have to wait long and the process went smoothly. The technician here always hits the vein on the first jab so it’s relatively painless and fast. The second appointment was with Dr. Patel to review the lab results. He’s always very pleasant. He explained everything to my satisfaction and patiently took the time to address a new concern I had. In addition, his assistant was excellent!
