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.

Very Casual Approach to the Practice of Medicine
Dr. Patel was my general practitioner for 3 years so I have some history him and his practice. Dr. Patel and his office staff have a “very casual approach” to his practice of medicine. Prescriptions are not called into the pharmacy - it may take several follow-ups to get it done. Appointments get lost and billing is often months behind. I requested a Cologuard cancer test and it did not get done (he said he doesn’t like Cologuard and wanted to do the colonoscopy) – six months later I am in the hospital with colon cancer. You can find better doctors.

I had just changed my doctor to Dr Patel. Then I broke my leg and although Dr Patel wasn’t my assigned doctor at Health South, he still stopped by to see me any time he was there. He is very knowledgeable and will always take time to answer your questions. I am very glad I changed to him.

Dr. Patel always checks you thoroughly and spends time with you to answer all your questions and address all your concerns. My doctor retired from his practice and I was not happy with his replacements and that almost every time you went to the office someone new saw you - might as well have gone to a walk=in clinic. I am a retired nurse from ORMC & WMCH so I have worked with most of the doctors here and knew right away who I would for my primary doctor.

I recently broke my leg & Dr Patel was one of my dr’s at the hospital & also inpatient rehab @ Healthsouth. He is very kind, answers all questions & takes his time with you. I am now going to change my primary dr to him. I can’t say enough good things about him.

Although I am not qualified to say what Dr. Patel is like in his private practice, as far as attending in MRMC, I would give him a Z- - - He has acted negligently to my father in Kindred Hospital. His negligence is documented by the staff there. He failed to consult with the appropriate MD for my father. And the nursing staff at Kindred has been doing EVERYTHING POSSIBLE to clean up his mess. Shame on Sanjay Patel, MD.
