Amazing Doctor that took his time with me in the room and went into explanation with every one of my questions. He made me very comfortable and I would recommend to all my friends and family.

I have had 2 knee replacements by Dr. Patel, the second one was nearly painless during my entire recovery. He took the time to perform an extra nerve block in the office a week before my surgery that limited my pain for 6-8 weeks after surgery. He is truly compassionate about his patients and cares to limit as much pain as possible because this additional pain block was not fully covered by insurance and I did not receive a single bill for it. He lost money to make sure I had a less painful recovery. How many doctors these days do that kind of stuff for patients any more? One in a million doctor. Thank you Dr. Patel!! Would recommend to everyone!!

I was very disappointed in Dr. Patel and did not find him compassionate at all. Refused to give me pain medicine when I was very obviously in pain, referred me to a pain management doctor. Why do I want to go to another doctor and pay another co-pay, and waste more time and money? Would not recommend him to anyone either.

I waited over an hour and half to be seen. Even with an early appt. And inside of figuring out what was wrong he referred me to a different doctor who also didnt help.

Doctor Patel made it so that I could not get knee surgery. I am 22 years old and play sports and had one opportunity to make it out to a doctor from back home before I graduated college and started my career a month later. I saw him and he refused to use my own tendon and would do an allograft which studies have shown are a poor choice for young athletes (which is exactly what I am). I told him that I did not want to go through the hell of another torn ACL and that I wanted the auto-graft... He refused to do it because I was too old (I am 22 and in perfect health). Basically he wouldn't put his own pride aside for the better of his patient. I have since seen THREE doctors all of which said an allograft would be a terrible idea, especially if I looked to play sports again. Dr. Patel is basically a joke in my book and made my life about 10 more difficult during an already stressful time. I would not suggest him to anybody

He was very knowledgeable and positive. Does not keep you waiting. Takes his time explaining why and how he will correct ortho problems. He got me walking again without a cane. He's the best!

I saw Dr. Patel now knowing what to expect and when he walked in to the room I immediatly felt at ease. I would recommend him to a friend or family member in a heart beat
