  • I saw thr doctor in about 10 minutes. The staff was very nice. The doctor was great.
    Dr. Patel is definitely knowledgeable and I trust her understanding of my health concern and her recommendations for next steps. But what most impressed me was her bedside manner. I did not feel rushed, I felt like she was genuinely concerned about my health concern and my questions relating to my health concern. I left her office with an understanding of my results and I sincerely appreciate the level of care she provided. I also feel compelled to share that her assistant was friendly, quick to respond to my messages, and even reached out to me to offer a different appointment time if it would help me with my schedule.
    Dr. Patel is very kind, thorough, and non-judgmental towards her patients. She is a specialist I feel I can trust and would recommend to others.
    They still took me in even though I was 20 min late, thanks
    Very knowledgeable physician
