Dr Patel is a wonderful ophthalmologist! She is knowledgeable, caring and thorough. She clearly explained the condition of my eyes (early cataracts) and how to protect them from the sun and properly advised me on filling my prescription for prism lenses to address my double vision. She is efficient and a pleasure to visit. I trust and value her advice and look forward to my next visit.
