Tushar Patel, M.D.
My only complaint is that Dr. Patel didn’t have much time to spend with me. When I signed in, I observed that the person who signed in before me had an appointment time with Dr.Patel only 10 minutes before mine. This is overbooking, in my opinion.

Tushar Patel, M.D.
Takes his time to explain the diagnosis in great detail. Never in a rush. Patient is always first. Creates an atmosphere of trust and he goes out of his way to personally help, making calls to other doctors to get you the care and treatment you need.
At District Ortho, your care is always led by a board-certified orthopedic surgeon. Unlike many practices, we do not utilize physician assistants or nurse practitioners for office visits—our patients are seen directly by experienced doctors at every appointment. This commitment to physician-driven care ensures the highest level of expertise, consistency, and trust.
