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 good but his staff is the worst I have seen anywhere. You never get a phone call back. I had a serious incident that needed immediate attention. I called 3 times in one week but never got a call back. I don’t understand how he can effectively treat his patients with their behavior. I think the staff just doesn’t care and is not qualified for their positions.

Great Doctor
Dr. Patel is a great MS Neurologist and always makes sure to give us enough time to ask any questions we might have. He explains things well and in a way that non-medical people can easily understand a complex disease. We would highly recommend Dr. Patel to anyone living with MS that needs a new Neurologist. Dr. Patel also listens to what patients would like and is willing to work with them to meet their medication goals and best interests.

DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME!
Dr. Patel is a horrible doctor and has absolutely no passion for caring for his patients. He does not listen or perform exams. He avoids seeing patients in his specialty with multiple sclerosis and has requested to forward his patients to normal neurologists who do not specialize in multiple sclerosis or know how to maintain a multiple sclerosis patient’s baseline. All the reviews here for a reason and not one single positive. This says a lot. Stay way, trust your gut.

Honest Review
Dr. Patel doesn't listen. He did not do a neurological exam. He did not even enter the room. I have seen doctors and Westwood Neurology for 10 years and have never been treated so poorly. Don't waste your time with this man.
