What Patients Are Saying

Dr Patel is a 5 star plus Surgeon. He has performed my 2 back surgeries. I have a degenerative discs so my first fusion was on L-3 & L-4. That solved my back pain & right leg pain. Then in April 2019, I’ve been experiencing excruciating back & right leg pain & numbness. He performed my second operation fusing L-3, L-4 & L-5 & S-1 together. Dr Patel was & is compassionate to my pain each time. He explains exactly what is happening & what must be done to eliminate the pain. He’s a kind person. I put all my trust in Dr Patel and would recommend him to anyone experiencing pain. He’s wonderful surgeon!!

I highly recommend Dr Patel for anyone searching for an innovative, professional, personable and caring back specialist. He performed my thoracic (T10&T11) surgery with a new innovative technique that was less invasive and had me back to work after 4 weeks of recovery, not the usual 3 months! The surgery was very successful. I am 6 months out from surgery and am very pleased with the results.
