Very pleasant to work with. The waiting room was busy and he still took the time to address my concerns and even ask if I had other questions. The staff wasn't all that nice (rude and cold) but the doc made up for it with his enthusiasm and patience.

I saw Dr. Patel yesterday & thought he & his staff were great. Im an anxiety prone person & they made me feel at ease. He addresed the initial issue for my visit & then other problems he saw with my allergies. He fully explained everything in language the average person can understand, he even gave a refferal for another doctor if my issue wasnt resolved. I have already recommended him to people.

I generally prefer the recommendations of close friends when it comes to doctors. But yesterday, after several days of feeling unwell and in dire need of a provider who would accept my insurance, I found Dr. Patel via ZocDoc. Although the doctor was clearly busy, he immediately put me at ease and took time to address my concerns. He was professional, personable and highly engaged. I received excellent, efficient treatment. Highly recommended.

Dr. Patel is one of the best doctors I have ever visited in America. He is very intelligent, patient, and thorough with his exam as well as takes into consideration your personal views on medicine (i.e., would you rather have a more homeopathic approach to healing, a script, or a combo of the two). I highly recommend Dr. Patel to anyone who is having ENT issues.
