He barely spoke to me.
Excellentt treatment of the doctor I trust him and I fell sade
The experience raised serious concerns. 1. No Evaluation: Dr. Patel did not examine my son or his G-tube. He took a personal call in the exam room, openly discussing liability insurance—unprofessional and inappropriate. 2. Would Not Review Records: When I asked about the G-tube size previously ordered, he told me to look it up in the UCHealth app instead of checking the chart. 3. Dismissive of Test Results: Asked about prior colonoscopy and biopsy results, he simply said “It’s normal—he has GERD,” and again referred me to the app. 4. No G-Tube Guidance: Refused to explain differences in G-tube types or sizes. Told me to decide with home health and send the info to his office. 5. No Help with Medication Risks: When I asked about preventing bone loss from long-term Lansoprazole use, he said that was the PCP’s job. Summary: This visit lacked basic medical care and respect. I’ve requested a different physician and plan to file a formal complaint.
Caring and knowledgable.
I never felt a thing 🤣🤣🤣🤣
In the short time which we spoke, Dr.Patel seemed very engaged and professional.
This colonoscopy was a disaster. Was not fully evacuated until after I got home.
HORRIBLE, I ha e been with him for over a year and its very very apparent they dont teach time management in the school he went to, o er the year he has never been in time for a scheduled appointment this time he was over a hour yes I said a hour late so I left. He needs to quit double booking people especially if he can't handle the work load and see the people he has scheduled he is forsure the worst doctor that I have seen in the springs. He doesn't even have his staff tell you that he is running late he and they just leave you in a room hoping that he actually makes it close to the time he scheduled you. Since I left this time due to waiting a hour I will be waiting for the bill to come in, and once it does I will let them know its a fraudulent claim because he left me in the room for over a hour and I left do to him not maintaining his scheduled appointment time. I will not be rescheiwith this doc since in over 5 visits he never was on time, not once!!!!!
Great staff and supporting team.
Dr. Patell is awesome and wonderful .
