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.

Exceptional Nephrologist - Dr. Patel!
From the moment I walk into DNA, I feel very comfortable. The Nurse I work with is Phong, and she is incredible!! She's always encouraging, helpful, kind and very knowledgable! She makes me feel at home. Dr. Patel is always right on time, and he is just a wonderful nephrologist! He takes the time needed to explain my labs and kidney disease. While making me feel hopeful, he is also very seasoned and experienced as an MD in his field. I always leave the office feeling much better! Also, Sandy - who visits with me too is very knowledgeable and is so inspirational! I saw Dr. Steven Rinner for decades, and when he retired, I was concerned about starting anew with a different provider. But, Dr. Patel time and time again proves he is an exemplary physician!

Model of what a doctor should be
At 77 years old, I have seen many doctors over the years, but none have impressed me, or made me feel as comfortable with my health and more optimistic about the future than Dr., Tapan Patel. Many doctors are rushed. Patients can sense the “busyness“ in the air of the offices. This is not the case in Dr. Patel‘s office. Everyone, without a question, is calm, pleasant, and communicating by word and action, a feeling of comfort and security. This is extremely important to the patient because we are, at times, worried to varying degrees about our most precious gift - our health. I am absolutely confident and I know you will be too in this doctor’s staff and his treatment. I only wish that all my doctors had his personable ness and attentive personality. The same sentiments , in their own perspective, can be applied to the check in and check out staff, as well as his nurses. So, whatever your condition, you will feel confident that you are getting the best care possible.

Dr Patel and his nurse, Fong are the best! When I have an issue, I am able to resolve it within an absolute minimum of time. Their patient care and concern along with their attention to medical detail is exceptional. They are the standard by which I rate all other medical personnel!
