Dr Patel is amazing. I have been with him for several years. We started with shots. Now, with the help of two Aurora spacers, my back is doing well. He is helping me with other arthritis related issues. In addition to being a really good doctor, he is kind and caring.

I’m very pleased with the staff and doctor Patel! I feel everyone cares about my well being! Although I did hear someone gripe about another patient that wasn’t very nice but the patient was a snot!! Still need to be careful what is said around the office there’s always someone else listening!
