      Dr. Patel has provided excellent services to both myself and my daughter. This is one of the reasons I changed to her as my doctor. I often recommended her to others.

      She was patient and a good listener. I don't recall the last time a provider took the time to listen to my concerns and clearly explain it to me. She followed up with me the following day to respond to the questions during the visit.

      Dr. Patel was not available at my appointment time and I waited longer than acceptable before she arrived to tell me that she would be further delayed. She seems kind although I felt as though she didn't want to truly evaluate all of my menopause symptoms.
