he is a doctor that explains everything for you to understand. He was nice and patient and very kind. Also, I was not sitting there for a long period of time I was in and out. I was saying no more than 45 minutes my x-rays and everything we're done efficient with Great staff.

Dr. Patel is wonderful, aside from having two successful surgeries with him, I appreciate that he takes time to explain everything including all options, and he puts my mind at ease with his knowledge and experience. Can only say great things about Dr. Patel!
