Patient Reviews for Ashesh Patel, MD
Recommendation- Bedside Manner
- Wait Time
This was my second visit to Dr. Patel, after discovering him on ZocDoc - he's a great physician and is very efficient. I had a potentially serious condition today and felt very well-attended to and cared for - Dr. Patel returned my calls quickly even after hours. If you schedule a visit, my only advice would be come prepared with questions as he seems to move patients in and out fairly quickly. But, if you have questions, he answers them thoroughly and it's clear he very much cares for his patients.

The same as usual, nice and helpful. I've been a patient of Dr. Patel for some time now. I pretty much know what to expect, I have no complaints and can say that Dr. Patel is a very good doctor. I would definitely recommend him.

I made an online appointment for a physical at 9am and almost immediately was called back by Dr. Patel who gave me the option of coming in earlier, at 7:30 or 8am. In the meantime, I got terrible back pains from shoveling snow, so I asked the doctor to help me with that during my physical. Dr. Patel was very flexible and accommodating, medicated me right away and recommend an excellent physical therapy facility near by. I was very pleased and eased after seeing Dr. Patel, who is very straight forward and to the point. No waste of time, but you don't feel rushed either.

Doctor Ashesh Patel is a PHENOMENAL doctor...and i don't use that word lightly. My appointment was at 9am Tuesday morning. I arrived at 8:55am, i filled out the paper work as was seen almost immediately there after. The staff was great, kind, professional without being rigid, and were genuinely caring. The office was very "old school" witch i like very much in my doctors office as i feel it is much more hands on. I did spend more time talking with his assistant a sweet and kind med student at GW hospital, but she communicated everything to him and he knew exactly what was going on and didn't need to answer 1000 questions all over again. I have 2 broken ribs and a cold, witch was the purpose of my visit. Dr. Patel is EXTREMELY knowledgeable and never skipped a beat when talking with me. As a new resident to Washington DC he is my new primary care physician, and i cant imagine going to any other doctor. With my first visit his staff and himself now have a patient for life. 99.999999% of doctors these days are very blunt and cold and seem to care more about making sure you get your bill then making sure you are doing okay, but Dr. Patel has an old fashioned charm that truly makes you feel like a human being and not just another "number" like most other doctors do these days. I recommend him to anyone and everyone, you wont find a doctor or staff like them anywhere else these days. Even if you already have a PCP, i suggest giving him a try even just for a regular check up so you can see first hand what a wonderful individual he really is =D!...you just might end up switching to him.

I got there a bit early so that I could fill out whatever paperwork was necessary, and the staff was very courteous and helpful. I was a little surprised that the preliminary examination was done by a GWU medical student, but she seemed like she knew what she was doing, and was very professional. When Dr. Patel came in, I was a bit surprised at how young he seemed, but again, he was very professional and really seemed to know what he was doing. All in all, it was a very satisfactory experience, and took less than an hour.

This was my first visit to his office, and I went for my annual physical. I arrived early before my scheduled appointment to fill out the necessary paperwork. Upon finishing that, it was only a short wait until my name was called. A resident actually performed my physical. But in my brief meeting with Dr. Patel afterward, he was friendly and sounded very knowledgeable. My appointment concluded with having my blood drawn and giving my urine sample - no problems. Overall, it was a very smooth first visit! I look forward to contacting and visiting Dr. Patel for my future medical needs.

This was my first visit to the clinic, which struck me as an old-fashioned doctor's office. The staff was professional. The wait was a bit long, but it sort of went with the old charm of the place. Doctor Patel was very pleasant, quiet, soft-spoken, and informal. Although his examination was short, I felt it was thorough and to the point. He seemed caring without fussing too much, which worked fine for me.

Nice and knowledgeable, I've already recommended him to a friend in Virginia who has never found a doctor around her that she likes.

Dr. Patel was wonderful, the entire office was friendly and easy to get through the new patient paperwork. There was a bit of a wait -but it's also cold season, so it was manageable. I would definitely recommend him to friends as well as go back myself!

Very professional. My wait consisted of the time it took me to fill out new patient paperwork. He was very efficient, and I would definitely recommend.

I was impressed by how prompt he was, particularly since I'm a new patient and needed to fill out a lot of paperwork. He is very nice, though softspoken and his staff is extremely helpful. Ellen was terrific in sorting out insurance issues.
