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.

Throughout our pregnancy and all complications he stood by us. Very intelligent and experienced doctor! Gives enough time to all his patients which is why the waiting is worth. 7 years i know him and not a single time my appointment was on time but not a single time I left the office disappointed.

I would have given 10 stars to Dr Kirit Patels practise. Both Dr Kirit Patel and Dr Meghal Patel have been awesome through out our pregnancy. With the experience the duo have helped us deliver our second baby at a closer to 40 age without a single issue. During delivery our child had the umbilical cord around the neck. But Dr Kirit Patel delivered our baby with normal delivery and sheer excellence of his experience. During all our visits Dr Meghal Patel was elegant & helping that we felt at home

This is the best decision about choosing Dr after moving to NJ. Every doctor and each staff are awesomely helpful and reliable. Inspite of their super busy schedule, dr. kirit patel and dr Meghal patel shared their cell numbers & always reacheable there. I had complications and both doctors were there for my c section. There is no enough word to thank. God bless them!!

Dr Patel is really a God Sent for us & very Sincere on his duty. I got water broke on 30 weeks, Dr Patel immediately took a decision to admit & try for Labor, he answered all our questions without any hesitation considering our situation. He was continuously with us for close to 40 Hrs without even going home until the baby was delivered, such a caring Doctor. He saved both me & the baby from the critical situation, even if we thank him till the end of our life it won't be enough.

The best there is! Dr. Patel delivered my beautiful baby girl, after a scare of being positive with an Kell Antigen in my blood. His son Meghal and himself have taken extreme measures for my issue. They explained everything to me and made sure i didn't leave their office upset or worried. They care about their patients. If I could tolerate having more kids, I swear these 2 are it for me. They are the best doctors in New Jersey. Dr. Kirit delivered my baby girl on 7-16-2017. We love you

We hv recently moved from India and was misguided by a doc in town for sme gynaec issues ,she suggested me to go for unnesseccary procedures whereas alternate soln was trying medicines first and because of which i went into depression . Thankfully I gt a reference of docs Dr.Kirit&Meghal Patel who has treated me without any procedure and I am better now . They listen to every details very carefully and patiently. I wid recommend them to others.

Dr.Patel is a good clinician if you get him uninterrupted for 10 mins,comfortable to talk to Unfortunately, not much can be said of the office staff. waiting room chairs are filthy. Appointments run late on average 2-3 hours. He is constantly interrupted by his staff,you do not have much quality time. He is also more focused on typing into the computer than talking to you. the review will make little difference to them with a roaring practice. dr.patel needs to manage tardiness of this practice

This was my second delivery and i must admit i got the best of attention from Dr Kirit patel and his panel of doctors. I wanted to do c section as was not ready for the normal delivery by inducing so i called doctor and requested for c section but he explained me not to go for c section unless until its really necessary and that normal will be painful in the beginning but after delivery you will recover fast whereas c section takes longer to recover.

I met Dr Kirit Patel in 2008, when I was already pregnant with my daughter, we did not have insurance and , I wished for this child day and night . When we went to see him and said we do not have insurance, this is my second child and I am already diabetic and almost 34...............I am scared how will this happen.He just said one thing''Do you want this bay?..............''. I replied YES.......than he said ''I will show you the road .... you relax and walk on it''. Trust me it went smooth.

Dr Patel, probably is a good doctor maybe even better than the competition, but overall experience leaves so much to be desired. The normal wait time is at least 3 hrs before you get in for your weight and stuff, and further 1 hour to actually see him. The front office staff is just okay, they really don't care much about you. They have a job and they do it, which is not to make you comfortable. There is not even water in the facility, where you wait long hrs.
