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.

Thorough and warm professional manner with an excellent understanding of patient needs that improve overall health and wellness.

She doesn't care
I liked Dr. Patel initially but have learned over the past year that she does not care about me as a patient. I know this because she doesn't return my messages or take responsibility for ignoring them.

Ekta Patel hit me with a car, spoliated evidence, fled the scene of an accident and extorted me to not contact the police. I am crippled now. Instead of treating me properly, Northshore protects their doctors like a mafia.
