About Dr. Ankur Patel
- Sleep Physician: Board-Certified & Fellowship-Trained
- Self-designated "Sleep Nerd"
- Passionate about giving you your best night's sleep, no matter what age or stage of life
- Focused on tailoring and individualizing your care and treatment plan to your needs
- Committed to bringing trust, quality, and "care" back to healthcare
Dr. Patel is deeply passionate about sleep. He earned his Doctor of Medicine from University College Dublin and completed his Residency in Internal Medicine at Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center. He further advanced his expertise with a Master's in Medical Sciences from Drexel University and a Fellowship in Sleep Medicine at Wayne State University Medical School.
He is always grateful to have received his specialty training under the guidance of some of the current experts, leaders, and advocates in the field. Their passion was so motivating and infectious that he was convinced his calling was in Sleep Medicine.
As a fellow, he developed a fascination with the circadian rhythm among many other topics in sleep. This opened the door for his curiosity in unlocking and understanding the primal secrets of the human body.
He has a respect for all forms of healing and is always curious to explore the roots and successes of wellness throughout history. His main focus of care centers around optimizing sleep by whichever means are required, and he hopes to do so for every person aged zero to 150!
When he is not doing ?sleep stuff,? he enjoys trying out new activities, learning new skills, and most importantly, sharing any and all of that with his wonderful family.

The doctor and office manager were fantastic in every way. The issues stem from the medical supply company they recommended to supply the cpap machine. The first contact the companycwas via a text. This text said I need to sign two documents, a privacy doc and a financial doc, in order to contact my insurance company. That was a false. The the privacy doc would have authorized release of my medical and personal information to unknown & indiscriminate third parties. The financial document was to accept financial responsibility for equipment I haven’t yet seen or approved, with no clear itemized bill-just an open ended agreement to be responsible for unspecified charges then and in the future…and, oh, the agreement and charges might change at any time. READ THESE AGREEMENTS and talk to your insurance company for advocacy. I recommend the doc and the office manager is FAB.

Dr. Patel was incredible. I appreciated his candor and care so much and I would have enjoyed chatting with him all day. He was clear about what he thought I could be experiencing and how we were going to approach the issue. He was so supportive and I can’t recommend him highly enough.
