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.

Don’t go
The last visit he asked me why I was on a c pack machine? After he had ordered a sleep test and subsequently prescribing one to me. He then asked me why I was in his office. I said you told me to come every 6 months. Each time I saw him he would just walk out of the office not saying anything or even a good bye, leaving you wondering if he was coming back or not. Luckily i found a much better doctor in Patchogue.

Wonderful doctor with a warm manner. I go to him for my regular doctor. I do not have a pulmonary or heart disease. He is good at everything.

New patient 65 years old with many concerns and the man didn't listen to a word I said ...I noticed how he rushes patients in and out ...my chest x-ray came back with a cardio negative and he never bothered to contact me ...I verified that the lab sent it to him but his office staff claims that they never received it ...other clerical glitches too ...under it all I have a feeling that he is a fine physician but Dr. Patel must learn to listen to the patient ...very uncomfortable and unsettling.
