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.

Extremely knowledgeable,personable and profession!
Thoroughness and expertise.

I haven't stopped recommending him to everyone!!
This visit was for another procedure. Dr. Patel has treated me with the utmost professionalism & expertise from my very first visit. He takes the time to explain not only medically but also in terms that you completely understand. He takes the time to answer questions and gives you options if available. He treats you like a human being not a number.His staff is a reflection of himself, acknowledging you, treating you with kindness,empathy, friendliness & respect . Dr. Patel & his team treat you like you matter & they truly want what's best for your well being !

I am currently in treatment w/Dr. Patel for several pain issues: cervical, lumbar, SI joints, radiating pain w/neuropathy, and occipital migraines to name a few. I have found him to be conscientious, intelligent, and offers hope and options for those suffering with pain. He has been such a blessing to me. I recommend him highly to others.

Dr. Patel has been amazing to me and I actually couldn't imagine seeing another Ortho. To be honest I don't think I would. He has been the light with all my back issues. Thank you Dr. Patel for everything!
