  4. There was NO visit, in person or by telephone Most impolite, rude people I have ever dealt with staring with the physician right down to the person answering the telephone.

  5. They took people in before me that had arrived way after me. They should have done a tele appointment as it was only for a medication refill. A waste of my 2 hour drive time.

  6. Doctor gives you time to express your concerns and ask ?’s. Throughly explains and you never feel hurried. Caring environment.
    Nicole, Valerie and Lucy are gems!

  20. Worst doctor and office EVER! They put you on hold for 20 minutes. I called them due to a concern after my moms colonoscopy. The lady on the phone said someone will contact me. I’ve been waiting for almost 2 days for a call back. This is absolutely unacceptable!!!!!!!

  21. I wish the doctor would have talked to me personally after surgery. I waited 10 days for the post op to find out I needed to make an appointment with a different specialist. This 10 days of waiting was a waste of time, I could have had the appointment with other specialist all set up.

  38. Today was the first time meeting Dr. Patel. He took time with me listened to my concerns, and provided me with a treatment plan in my best interest. His staff was efficient and friendly. I would recommend their office to anyone who is having Gastro issues

  39. First the doctor doesn’t even touches you. The nurse does it. He seats behind a glass wall. I had an endoscopy and colonoscopy done on April and I got an appointment only for August. This is not a Doctor he shouldn’t be in the office seen patients

  40. After an ER visit and being referred by the ER nurse, I called and told them about my situation and pain especially being 6 weeks postpartum and they were able to get me in the next day. Staff was quick, professional, answered a lot of …

  41. I had my 1st appointment scheduled at 3:15 and the doctor finally saw me at ~4:05-4:10. Staff at the reception not very welcoming/friendly. I hope it is just an isolated case but it was not an overall great 1st experience.

  46. Dr. Patel is AWESOME! Great bedside manners, treats you with dignity and respect! Great personality, and shows true interest in you as a human, not a number. Not at all like the last GI, ” vangara ” who was always rude and mean. Recommend Dr. Patel to any and everyone!
