Dr. Patel was quick and to the point. He took a look at the skin issue and determined it did not need treatment at this time. He told me how to identify if the issue became serious and outlined under what circumstances I should schedule a follow-up. He didn't treat what didn't need to be treated. Quick and easy.

Dr. Patel has a narrow specialty and indicated that I should've been scheduled to see someone else at the dermatology practice. He provided temporary treatment and a brief fleeting exam (of under 2 mins).
