Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I read an article Dr Patel wrote and flew in to have him improve the vessels. He knows his anatomy (I am a medical student) and did it safely. Thank you Dr Patel. You said they wouid be 60% better. I think they are more than 80% better. I am very happy

Please thank your team and your surgery nurses who were very helpful and efficient. I will be calling to come and have some laser treatments

I used to be the prettiest person in the room and then one day nobody noticed me. I became invisible, but not only to men but everyone. Before people would open doors, smile at me and the men would chat me up!!!! I know it is shallow but I know then this stopped: when I was 58 years. I know you told me this things don't happen suddenly, but I even know the month!!! Thank you for using your magic to give me back the joy in my life. I love everything now and it has made me happier. Even a 30 year old man tried to ask me out at a store!!!! I did not tell my husband!!! You are a magician!!!!! Please also thank your team who were all so nice (and they all love you!!)

Thank you for what you have done for me. I have a new spring in my step and I look forward to every day. I know it sounds dramatic for a cosmetic operation, but it is the truth. I can only say "thank you" for all your studies and your skills

And I have had some incredible comments from people who did not know I had a facelift. The ones who had not seen me for a while thought I had changed my hair or I had lost weight (I have done neither!!!!). Even my husband keeps on looking at me and telling me how beautiful I look!!! It is a nice change, is all I am going to say..

You called my doctor in Italy and guided him and told him how to help me. As an American living in Italy, I was lost and your former student doctor treated me like I was a VIP. When I thanked Dr Luciano, he said "but he is my Professor and so you are just as important to me!" I have never been treated like this before. WE NEED MORE DOCTORS LIKE YOU!!!! I am sorry to shout this, but it is true. God bless you always

You did my facelift four years ago: you will remember I am the lady from Georgia and you were teasing me about my town which you had actually visited!!! My family thinks you are part of our family as I mention you so often. When Dr Rula suggested I come to Salt Lake for my facelift, I only did it because I saw what you did for her!! I knew that if a Plastic Surgeon would fly to you to have her face lift, I should also!!!! Anyway, THANK YOU very much. Dr Rula says hi: she also still looks amazing!!

But I tell everyone who will listen: "I have a secret weapon". And that is you, Dr. Patel. For more than 15 years you have looked after me even when I had trouble with things outside of plastic surgery. You even helped my cousin in Portugal!! Who does that. This part of my healthcare system is not broken!!!! Natalia is still waiting for you to visit her in Portugal!!!! Bless you.

I now feel very young again everytime I look in the mirror or when people meet me and tell me how amazing I look. The right knee reminds me I am not so young but you have given me back my youth for which I will always be grateful. I did not tell you that I researched 12 plastic surgeons before I chose you!!! Best choice I ever made (besides marrying my lovely Stef)!!! Call us when you are in town please so we can take you to dinner

I look more than 20 years younger! I have not had so many compliments from people including strangers even when I was 20!!! I told Dr patel I never had a neck like this even at 18 or 20. And I have no idea how he got my skin to look so great. I cannot recommend Dr Patel highly enough. Have him show you my photos!!! I have been sending him photos regularly and will continue to as I live out of state

Dr. Patel is one of the best and nicest doctors I have ever had. The medical staff had such high praise for him too. My eye lids were bad enough they were causing me to have eye infections. He fixed more than just my eye lids. He gave me my self esteem back. I didn't realize how badly my eyes made me feel until he fixed them. I think he was more excited than I was to have this done. I would recommend Dr. Patel to everyone.

I was treated like I had psychiatry problems and was put on heavy drugs. Even after I was started on medications I got worse. A doctor at the University said "I know who would know how to treat you" and referred me to Dr Patel. He changed my life by diagnosis my condition of spasms and face spasms and he has now got me driving and working again. I was so depressed I was actually suicidal, So I mean it when I say Dr Patel saved my life!! What a great physician. He also has a great sense of humor!!! So watch out

After I saw what Dr Patel did to my best friend, I had to look better than him!!!! I am astonished at the result. Dr Patel said "this is not your father's facelift". He explained how they now work on all the different layers and also on the skin. Now I wish I had done it years ago!!! He said he hears that all the time.

My friends and family think I am using special creams now because my skin actually glows. It also looks alive. It is the only way I can describe it. The aerolase was painless. The other laser was mildly stingy but it did take the skin a few days to look normal. Expect three to five days of redness but not bad. All my friends want to know what creams I am using. I tell them I am using the "Patel" cream!!! Happy with my results
