Dr. Patel was very informative and gave me several options for treatment. He also gave me medication to assist with my care that no other provider had offered. Dr. Patel is my 3rd doctor for my issue, and he really assisted me in resolving the pain and swelling.

Dr. Patel is an excellent surgeon; since our first meeting in November 2 025, he has explained clearly to me the procedures that are necessary to complete a successful left knee replacement. He has engaged directly with me, has entered all my questions, and is made me confident that I was in the best hands for my procedure.
