Patient Reviews
Oct 05, 2024
I think Dr. Patel is a very good doctor. I’ve had a good patient doctor relationship with her. She is friendly and likable. She has, in the past done laser for my eyes in regards to pressure build up which went well. She is very thorough & I trust her. I bring my daughters to her as well. The only criticism I have is with staff and billing. When paying my co-pay in cash, they always ask me if I want a receipt. I don’t see why they just don’t give you a receipt automatically. I say this because a couple months down the line I will then receive a letter saying I owe a co-pay. I will then have to go through calling them and sending proof that I did pay my co-pay. This has happened at least two times. Now if I didn’t have my receipt, I assume they would expect me to pay again. But going back to Dr. Patel, she is still worth going to see.
