Patient Reviews
Mar 25, 2021
I had Fuch's dystrophy in both eyes. After dismal experience with another eye doctor, I found Dr. Patel. He is an awesome doctor, surgeon, and explains everything and cares about his patience. I had two corneal transplants and can now see again. I would not trust this type of eye surgery to anyone else. Two days ago I could not see out of my left eye. Today I am typing this message using only my left eye on a cell phone.. Thank you Dr. Patel.

Board Certifications
What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
