I’ve been seeing Dr. Patel for quite some time now. He is professional and prompt on time for appointments and sending requested medical letters. If you ask a question he will answer it. Pretty much he gets the job done and is a reliable doctor who pays attention to your needs. He may not be on this app right now but you can still call him and set up a appointment for a video conference on telehealth which provides reminders for your appointment and a link via text to join the call as well as stores your insurance information and can send your prescription to the pharmacy of your choice and capsule for a quick home delivery the same day.

I am a board certified psychiatrist with experience of over 30 years. I treat adults with depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar mood disorders, schizophrenia, ADHD, PTSD, OCD and adjustment disorders.
I collaborate with patients’ psychotherapists and other doctors and caretakers. My goal is to minimize psychiatric symptoms with the least amount of medication so that patients continue to develop themselves to their fullest potential.
I believe that each person is unique and comes with rich experience of life. What happens around a person does not identify him/her but how they deal with these situations are what makes the person. Psychiatrist helps the person to find the strength within.

OFF HOURS
You’ll only see this person on his off days & I hope your insurance covers it. Bogus. Bad. Weird...to say the least. It appears to me that my copay is simply to fund your family summer vacation.

He was very professional, helped me with the exact reason I was there and went the extra mile for me twice. He waited for me an extra half hour when I was late and also get the preauthorization done right away!! I will defiantly be staying with this doctor
March 27, 2019Kenyatta G.Verified patient
Amazing psychiatrist! Really friendly and understanding psychiatrist. Had no wait time at all. No unnecessary red tape or paperwork. He handled insurance and everything himself very quickly. Was very concerned and listened to my issues, with follow-up appointment easily scheduled soon after. He even gave me a mobile number which I could send a text to for any issues! My last psychiatry experience at another place was an absolute nightmare, didn't get to see the psychiatrist (only saw a PA) and they did not respond to over 20 phone calls! Unbelievable. I am very grateful to have switched to Dr. Ramanbhai Patel and will be coming here from now on!

What a great doctor completely understanding of my doctor switch + hypersomnia situation real ABC professional guy! love him days!!!
February 13, 2019Christopher M.Verified patient
The only positive thing I can say was that I was seen quickly. It was a little difficult to find the office because it was labeled as a chiropractor office and the actual office is in a house right next to the address provided. I walked into the office the first thing he asks me is for my insurance card then we were sitting in silence, so I began to explain why I was there, Dr. Patel interrupted me mid-sentence and said: "I'll ask the questions." In the middle of our appointment, his phone rang he answered it and yelled at the person on the phone that he was with a patient. There was absolutely no bedside manner, he jumped right in and started asking personal questions as if though I was doing a transaction at the bank. There was cash lying around his desk. I would not recommend this psychiatrist.
