“Dr. Patel was very thorough in explaining what the condition of my shoulder entailed. He was very honest, and gave me the option on which approach I wanted to take, along with his recommendation. When I made my decision on what my preference was, he was very honest about what my expectations should be. I have a follow up next week. Great doctor, great office staff and very happy with my first visit.”
