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.

Most caring Doctor !
Dr. Patel will never rush your visit. He asks about any concerns and considers suggestions. He explains things thoroughly. His staff is excellent and he is available on My Chart. I have been doctoring with him for many years and have been very happy with our partnership.

Very difficult to impossible to make an appointment. Does not return calls in a timely manner. They return calls after hours or make you wait up to three days and you still can't make an appointment.
