Dr. Patel is a very caring DR. He has always been very thorough with everything. he is very understanding and gives his undivided attention. He is the kind of DR you would want. I have been seeing him for the past 7 years now, and I recommend him to all my family and friends.

I just read a review left by Amy J. dated Feb. 12, 2020. I can't believe that she is talking about the same doctor that I and my family have had for the last 20+ years. The Dr. Patel that I know saved my life at least once when I presented with symptoms that could not be explained. He immediately admitted me to the hospital and ordered a regiment of tests to include specific bloodwork. His attention to me and my medical situation was of the highest care and concern. I was subsequently diagnosed with MRSA and was treated both in the hospital and at home for the next 5 months. In addition, Dr. Patel recently received my husband's bloodwork back and called us into his office immediately. My husband's kidneys were failing and Dr. Patel had already made arrangements for my husband's admission to a local hospital that day. All that being said, I cannot say enough about the genuine care and concern of this man. In my opinion, you will be under the best care in the area.

My experience with this doctor was not good. He appears to prefer patients that don't ask a lot of questions, he is testy if you do not immediately understand his reasoning based on questions I believe he finds more challenging, he is quick to throw a prescription without proper testing, and I believe that geriatric patients are the type patients he does best with in that they are in and out without many questions as he seems more interested in a quick visit and a quick solution. I was told by several people in the Baltimore area that have been patients they advocate for that my observations are correct in that without an advocate, there isn't the best of care or proper diagnoses for the patient that has no questions, especially when they are elderly and trusting. They are in and out and he does not seem to be very thorough, he'd rather take surface solutions and see if they stick, he doesn't seem to go the extra time to more thoroughly check out what might lie beneath a condition.

Dr. Patel always takes the time to make you feel like your health is important to him. Very easy to talk with. Explains everything.
