Today was my first visit with Dr. Patel. There has only been one other dentist like him and that was Dr. Waxman when I was a child. Dr. Patel is very kind and very funny, made me feel very relaxed and the procedure was painless. Highly recommended him, especially for someone who has had a bad experiences with a dentist in the past.

Very open honest and professional
January 23, 2015Damion H.Verified patient
Dr. Patel is seriously the best. He is so patient with people like me who jump at the sound of anything and have zero tolerance to any kind of pain. He truly is a sweetheart. Makes you comfortable by assuring you and making fun.... humor goes a long way. I recommend him to everyone. I am never going to another dentist. He is A plus plus plus.
March 23, 2015Olive G.Verified patient
Amazing, and considerate staff. My son struggles with intense anxiety when it comes to dental care. Dr. Patel and his staff showed immense care and demonstrated a patient and calm atmosphere which can be hard to find. Would recommend to friends and family.

October 30, 2014Mary L.Verified patient
First time going to see him and he was great. Never pushy and was very honest about what needed to be done and how urgently. He was gentle start to finish. I would definitely recommend to anyone in search of a good dentist in the area.

It was Phenomenal!!!
I was a little nervouse but they treated me like family and immediately I felt comfortable.
Highly Recommend DMD, Nikhil Patel and his team.
May 14, 2014Brian D.Verified patient
I found Dr. Patel friendly, communicative and took a conservative approach to a potentially complex problem. He really exhibits a caring attitude in relieving and minimizing pain and explaining his procedures. He is very rational and takes an approach to his procedures in favor of the patient in the interest of minimizing costs.
I give him two thumbs up and a giant vote of confidence!
June 3, 2014Ken B.Verified patient
Stellar as always!
May 9, 2014Kurtis T.Verified patient
Very nice!! He started of talking, and during conversation tooth was being extracted. It was a surprise for me that when my tooth was extracted within a fraction of minutes without having pain. More than that he doesn't see the patient for making money, rather suggesting if other options are also available, to be work done affordable somewhere else.
November 18, 2013Janardan K.Verified patient
Excellent
October 2, 2013Roberta K.Verified patient
I am very scared and sensitive to process done on my teeth, I have been in 3 other dentists before, with the other dentists I only went for the first appointment, my experience was painful, they did not informed me about things I should know and I never went back. Now, knowing I needed to take care of my teeth I decided to visit a dentist and I found doctor Patel on zocdoc.com. I went to Dr. Patel office and I can't wait for my next appointment, he is so nice, always smiling, inform you very good about the health of your teeth and the process you would need. The secretary and his assistants were very nice too and they were always worried for me asking me all the time if I was doing ok since this was my first visit to a dentist in 3 years. Doctor Patel knows very good what he is doing and he teach you what's the best way to keep your teeth in a good condition. I highly recommend doctor Patel. My next visit is next week and for the first time I am excited about going to the dentist.
December 6, 2013Nelsy D.Verified patient
Dr Patel is sensitive and warm. He takes the time necessary to help me understand what I need and how he intends to help me gain better oral health.
