4/27/12 5 5 5 5 Was referred to Dr. Patel 14 years ago by a co-worker. He has always treated me with dignity and respect. Explain my condition and how to treat with both medication and life style changes. Knew one of the reasons for my initial visit was the need to keep healthy for a new born child - Dr. Patel never neglects to ask about him.  Respond

4/12/12 5 5 3 4 Like a previous poster stated, he can get rude, defensive, and somewhat hostile if he is challenged; or if you complain about anything related to the treatment he recommends. That being said, his staff is wonderful and he does seem to be knowledgeable. Just be careful not to cross him.  Respond

11/11/11 5 5 5 5 I took a treadmill test in California. I was told I needed an Angiogram and to get a cardiologist in Las Vegas, since this is where I live. My husband received two recommendations from friends. I went on line to see what patients were saying about these doctors. There I found Dr. Patel who really stood out as an excellent cardiologist. He truly is the very best. I liked the fact that he does his own Angiograms. His staff is caring and efficient. The office and surgery staff have been with him for many years and praise his capabilities. I am really blessed that Dr. Patel is my heart specialist.

6/12/11 4 5 5 5 Dr. Patel is a superb diagnostician. He cuts quickly to the chase, weighs a wide variety of factors, discusses possible courses of treatment with the patient, moves swiftly to call on colleagues for suggestions on especially difficult cases. He is not a gusher, but he is a warm and caring medical doctor.

2/3/11 5 5 5 5 The staff is very professional and really care about your health. They prove it through their actions and are always willing to help with any concern whether in the office or on the phone. Dr Patel is extrememly knowledgeable and treats me with the utmost respect.

He has performed more than one heart cath on me with excellent results and minimal discomfort. He is prompt on appointment time with very little waitng time. I have and will continue to recommend him to other people.

7/9/10 1 1 1 1 After an Angiogram procedure for my father in February 2008, Dr. Patel spoke to his kin about the results of the test. He spoke only to me, 24 year old daughter of the patient. He delivered the news that my father had 90% blockages in all his main arteries and that if he did not have open heart surgery, he would not live past 6months. He also noted that he probably would not give my father any hope of surviving the flight back to Canada for immediate care. My father lay there on a stretcher right after the procedure, while Dr.Patel delivered us a death sentance. His staff and residents and myself included all wore looks of shock and awe at his lack of compassion and outright disregard for his patients emotional state. Dr. Patel was on that day the most insenstive and unprofessional doctor Ive ever met. I filed a legitimate complaint against his unprofessional conduct at Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas, NV. I spoke directly with the Hospital Director, and he was spoken to. Pt 1
