Over the past year and a half Dr. Patel was always honest and always had our best interest at heart. He's a doctor that actually picks up the phone to call his patients when needed and does anything possible to reduce the stress infertility can cause. His staff his top notch in the way they handle their business - everyone from the front desk, to the nurses, to the lab techs, & finance treats you with sincerity and respect. No matter our outcome we were confident that we would not look back and doubt any part of our process. Dr. Patel and everyone at AZARH IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Dr Patel and his staff have been angels! From the first visit all the staff is very friendly and always on time. Dr Patel gave me each ultra sound and it took 4 months to get pregnant but each visit I was able to get ?s answered fully. There is always a Dr. on call and his partner in the practice is wonderful as well. Overall I could not have asked for better treatment with sucessful results!

This doctor was recommended to me, but I thought he was AWFUL. In our initial meeting, all he did was read statistics from a book to make the point that my chances of conceiving are low. Then, when I asked him about courses of action, he said that he could not respond until doing testing. Then, he did testing and said that the testing confirmed what he thought from the beginning, which seemed to make him very happy, but simply made me want to scream. In all, I felt that he was arrogant and condescending, not particularly interested in solving problems, and mostly interested in how much he would be able to make off of me. He delegated as much as he could to his nurses, but they were never able to answer the most basic questions. It's possible to do better. I found another great doctor on this website, and know that no matter my outcome, he's on my side, and we're doing all we can for success. That's all I ever wanted and expected.

I do not recommend Dr Patel at all. When he did my HSG he said it looked like by tubes were blocked and that he would call me the next day to go over the results once he has the radilogist look at the images. I was in tears and called the next day at 1pm Friday to get results and his staff told me I had to call my OB for results which ofcourse was going to be the following week before I can go see my OB for results although Dr Patel did the test. ANyway, after arguing with staff he actually called me back shortly after and told me that it was confirmed and that my fallopian tubes are blocked and that I need IVF so I need to start on that process right away. I had my OB ask for the results and when I went to see him he showed them to me and the report was normal, nothing about fallopian tubes blocked. Basically, Dr Patel lied to me so I can do IVF because he knew I could afford it and wanted to make money off of me. BTW, I got pregnant within 2 months without IVF

I would highly recommend going other avenues. Dr. Patel will give you a great consult but when treatments start, he does not spend a lot of time with you making you feel like you are on an assembly line. The first thing he recommends is clomid, which I do not suggest b/c it thins out you uterine lining substantially. He then recommends either IUI or Invitro. Your money back guarantee is if you qualify and that is hard to do. I know my body very well and I know when I ovulate. Dr. Patel stated that he has never heard of anyone ovulating before cycle day 12 and that I had no growing eggs during my ultrasound. I left the office very discouraged and in tears. I kept telling him I know my body and come to find out from my blood test, I was correct I did ovulate, he did my ultrasound to late. These doctors are not always right. After my diagnostics, I never went back. In addition, he coded my tests wrong to BCBS so I would've had to pay for tests I did not take yet.

The wait was ridiculously long to see him when there was no one in the office. My inital appointment was long, which is great because he talked with me, but he just asked me everything that he had in my chart right in front of him. I was told I NEEDED to send records 2 weeks prior, and he obciously never looked at them. I went back twice for follow ups but was so disappointed with each visit, I stopped seeing his office. He was rude and blunt and not helpful.

Dr. Patel is the 3rd RE we saw, and is by far the best doctor I've ever had. He sat down and answered all of our questions, even drawing diagrams to make sure we understood. We now have a baby boy thanks to Dr. Patel and his staff! Highly recommended!
