I have had two bunion surgeries with Dr. Patel. Both experiences were very positive. My first foot was very painful and often swelled I've been pain free for four years. My second foot I let go two years longer - which he told me could reduce the benefits. The recovery took longer, but I am pain free, with occasional swelling. My experiences have been very positive. I have Morton's Neuroma and will be seeing Dr. Patel for this as well.

Dr Patel has performed 3 surgeries on my feet in the past 23 years. He truly is a perfectionist and caring about his patients. If one starts talking to him he is very interesting and has a good sense of humor. Having diabetes he is always very concerned when operating on my feet and each time I have healed rapidly and never acquired an infection. Word of wisdom; follow his instructions faithfully and accurately and you will be fine. He has many years of expierence. It also stays on the cutting edge of what's new.

Dr. Patel has done two bunion surgeries for me. In both instances I was impressed with his thoroughness in diagnosis, as well as the surgery itself. He is clearly a perfectionist that takes pride in what he does. He was more concerned with the visual scarring than I was. He responded immediately to a phone call post surgery. I'd recommend him without hesitation. Additionally, his office staff was considerate and helpful in all phases of the process.

Dr. Patel has helped my wife (2 surgeries) me with orthotics, and now my son with an upcoming surgery. In all visits he was professional, competent and all issues were addressed and corrected. I would recommend Dr. Patel to anyone needing a Podiatrist.

I have a high deductible so I had to pay for the office visit.He rushed me, told me I needed Orthortics @400.00 up front, I said that I would have to thinks about that. He also said I needed some antifungal medication, just ask the person at the desk. What he failed to tell me was that it was $35.00 All I felt was that he was trying to sell me something and didn't care about my foot problem

I saw Dr. Patel for pain in my arches. The only solution offered was very expensive orthotics. I felt as though he rushed me out of there. Also, the staff was rude to me and to each other. After doing research on the internet, I found many more solutions for my problem that are much less expensive. I feel as though I wasted my time and money.

Went to Dr. Patel for stress fracture and I also had a neuroma. After several months of pain and cortizone injections I opted for surgery. Dr. Patel was great! I am no longer in pain and I am very grateful to Dr. Patel and his staff.

Went to Dr. for extreme heel pain and corns. Did not take xray but based his diagnosis on my recounting a 4 years previous dianosis by another physician.. Immediately offered solution of very expensive orthodic device. Did not give any other possible solutions.. When I came in to pick up the orthodic...he did not even read the chart before entering examination room....and asked about a non-existing condition. I had to ask him to do something about the corns...It appeared that main concern was selling orthodic.
