I would recommend Dr. Patel to anyone who has an issue with back pain and any issues with curvature on the back. Not only was he the best surgeon he also took the time to explain to me and to my family what was going on with my back. We never felt like we were holding him up from anything and he is so appreciated!!

I sought relief for neck and shoulder pain. My symptoms included loss of feeling in my extremities, pain in my neck and shoulders, numbness in the arms, hands and feet. After Dr. Patel's diagnosis and surgical corrections through Anterior Discectomy with Cervical Fusion I walked out of his office three months later able to resume all normal activities. I feel I have been completely healed in less time then I expected after listening to others with similar ailments. My care was outstanding.

Great surgen, great guy! He always took the time to sit and talk until he answers all my questions. He was able to explain things to me in a way that I was able to understand, not like I was in medical school. He was always upbeat and positive dispite me being in great pain and feeling discouraged. After talking to Dr. Patel I felt encouraged and actually looking forward to surgery. He did a great job! I felt completely comfortable allowing him to do whatever he felt was necessary to do.
