Patient Reviews
Sep 13, 2018
Dr. Patel has been our family doctor for over 10 years. He is always very caring, thorough, and takes extra time when needed due to a condition that is changing, especially when it is a very serious change. He cared for my husband until his death in 2016, and was always very considerate of his problems. I chose him as our doctor as a result of caring for patients while working at EAMC, as a nurse for nearly 5 years. I like the office help, and have a great working relationship with them.
