Patient Reviews
Dec 12, 2019
Dr Patel is a blessing to anyone who is fortunate enough to have him as their Oncologist. For the past 3 ½ years Dr Patel has treated me for stomach cancer. His protocols have been on target for my type of cancer which I am currently in remission. He is a very supportive gentle soul who is willing to take his time to help you understand your options and the process. I would highly recommend this lovely man to anyone facing cancer. From a grateful patient.
