Testimonials

"We really appreciated the concern Dr. Patel and her nurse Heather had for us. Whenever we called with a question Heather always returned our calls." "I really love Dr. Patel. She's really nice and very informative. She spoke to my children who were with me, even thought she doesn't have to."

"Dr. Patel is a very good listener."

"Dr. Patel is just wonderful. I have nothing but good to say about her. She is such a nice person."

"Dr. Patel really listened to me any time I had a concern, where other doctors I've had in the past would have just dismissed it. I truly do credit her for saving my life."

“Dr. Patel is fantastic in how she handles herself and how she talks with patients.” 

"Dr. Patel really listened to what I had to say. She worked with me to find a different medication that I was more comfortable with and would still provide similar results.”
