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.

The Best.
My first appointment with Dr, Patel was September 2013. I believe Dr. Patel has extended my life due to his decisions for my treatment of breast cancer. He has been supportive throughout the many months of chemotherapy and beyond. Cancer is not a choice and can be quite frightening, I'm grateful for Dr. Patel's support throughout treatment. I believe Dr. Patel is the best physician I have met in my 76 yrs. It is now 2024 and I am alive, thanks to Dr. Patel.

Dr. With A True Heart
Since 2012 until now Dr. Patel has been the most caring person l know. When I last came in, he went over some things with me and explained everything to me. He also listened to me and answered every question. I feel so blessed to have Dr. Patel as my doctor. I wouldn't change him for the world. Thank you Dr. Patel for being the man you are.
