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 a wonderful doctor. He listened to me and knew how to help me. Extremely knowledgeable, caring and professional. Thank you for everything.

Calming & Listens
The staff from the beginning, middle to the end are absolutely amazing. Everyone has an excellent personality making the patient experience and healing process easier. Dr. Patel did not dismiss what my daughter was telling him (which the ER docs 2 nights in a row had no problem doing) he and his team discovered such a pertinent injury that needs to be healed correctly. We are now on the correct path with his wisdom and guidance!

Finally, a doctor that listened to my description of ailment and did not dismiss as irrelevant simply because it has existed for so long and I’ve been living with the pain. Dr. Patel broke down the ankle/foot pain into two separate stages that we will address. I am looking forward to improved mobility and hopefully being pain free after years of hearing I need to continue to endure the pain and maintain reduced activity. It was nice to speak to a doctor that didn’t sugarcoat the problem - - he was honest about options and possible outcomes (some good, some bad) and willing to act on and get to the bottom of the problem.

First was happy to get an appointment the day I called. The staff is always professional and efficient, explaining each step as it will happen. Dr Patel came in, went over my symptoms, explained his diagnosis (after X-rays of course), explained his plan of treatment. I understood and asked my questions. I was very happy with today’s visit.

I very seldom leave feedback and the person in this case Dr. Patel has to be truly amazing for me to do so. I have been with Dr. Patel for several years and thru three surgeries. Dr. Patel's knowledle and expertise are second to none. Dr. Patel is straight forward, takes his time and never leaves me with any doubt or confusion. What greater compliment can be said that I still have my foot thanks to Dr. Patel. If looking for the best, you need to look no farther than Dr. Patel and his staff. Thank you Dr. Patel. Joe V.

This was my first time seeing Dr Patel. The entire staff was friendly. He was very caring, listening to me. He was very thorough In determining the cause of my ankle pain. He suggested to try a cortisone shot first to see if this helps before trying anything more invasive. He took plenty of time with me & explained everything very well. He was very pleasant as well.
