Patient Reviews
Sep 10, 2024
Dr. Patel is a rare find of a GI specialist. She is a great listener that takes the time to hear out your concerns. Once heard, she will give her expert opinion without making you feel rushed in the minimum. I had a colonoscopy done and it was all such a smooth experience. Availability was within a month for first consult that I was able to book on her site, and quickly thereafter for the exam.
