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.

Found Dr Patel & Midlothian Pediatric Dentistry after seeking a 2nd opinion. We have had 3 visits so far and we couldn't be happier! My son doesn't mind going to the dentist now for the first time in his life! All the staff are very friendly and the office is exceptionally clean. Very happy with our decision to switch!

Dr.Patel and her team are so friendly and so good with my kids (4 & 8). My kids LOVE going to the dentist! They take the time with each family to ensure everyone is comfortable (parents and kids) with procedures.

Dr. Patel is absolutely the best!! My son has special needs and Dr. P along with all her staff make each visit really special. They are kind and gentle taking time to explain things to my son so that he understands what’s happening during his visit. This helps him manage his anxiety and fear. His most recent visit was so successful not only physically-no cavities ??-but also emotionally. I highly recommend Dr. Patel for parents of children with special needs and those without who are simply looking for a high quality dentist.

Dr. Patel is wonderful. She does an amazing job with all 3 of my kids (10, 4, & 3). She’s patient, and very understanding with my little guys. When my kids have needed fillings or teeth pulled she’s quick but also very gentle. All 3 of mine have anxiety with the dentist but they go happily and willingly with her and her staff. I can not recommend them enough.

We had our very first dentist visit with Dr Patel today and we were immediately pleased!! The waiting area is super kid friendly and the front desk staff were AMAZING!! Dr Patel was Phenomenal...she explained everything in detail and when discussing a treatment plan for my son she offered me advice on what she would do as a Mom. The treatment area was awesome and I was able to sit comfortably on a bench while watching both kids get X-rays and their cleaning!! Our experience was PERFECT!!
