Patient Reviews
Dec 21, 2018
Dr. Patel was my doctor during a very difficult time for me which culminated in gallbladder surgery. Dr. Patel was compassionate and she always listened to my concerns. She called me personally when I had pressing questions and always treated me with kindness. The staff at the Long Beach outpatient surgery center were wonderful. I highly recommend Dr. Patel and her staff.
