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.

Excellent Physician!
This was my third colonoscopy with Dr. Patel over an eight year period and all have been a very positive experience with both Dr. Patel and his staff. He is kind and attentive with good bedside manner and he takes the time to answer all of your questions. His nurses are great, as well, and make the whole procedure comfortable. Would highly recommended this physician!

I highly recommend Dr. Patel and would refer him
It was my first time meeting Dr. Patel before my surgery. He took the time to go over the procedure and possible complications and answered all of my questions. The appointment wasn’t rushed at all and I feel like he really listened and heard what I was saying about my concerns and made me feel at ease. The entire office staff was friendly and helpful, and I recommend Dr. Patel and his office for your G.I. needs.

Great experience
From the time I entered the hospital doors, I was escorted everywhere and treated with courtesy and care throughout my endo-colonoscopy procedure. Dr. Patel takes his time to answer questions and explain the steps. Extra steps for prep made an unpleasant process a little more bearable. Highly recommend Dr. Patel.

Great Gastroenterologist
Dr. Patel took a lot of time to listen to me and ask questions about how I was feeling. I didn’t feel rushed at all during our appointment and he made me feel like he truly cared about my health.

Did not help
Needed help figuring out the root of my chronic constipation. I asked about motility testing or a CT scan and he didn’t think it was necessary and said to just keep taking laxatives. Called his office twice for help and nurse never returned my phone call so I ended up in the ER. Was referred to another doctor and found I have motility problems and now am finally getting the help I needed !!!!

They don't care about their patients
I called the office due to a very painful condition and could only get an appointment a week later, was told there was nothing to do about my condition except wait for the appointment. Being a clinician, I knew there were multiple non-pharmacological measures that could be taken prior for paint prior to the appointment......but none were offered! Why? Because the phone call isn't billable. They don't care about you.

Dr. Patel is by far one of the most valuable doctors that I have. He actually saved my life once when I was in severe trouble. He has a great way of explaining things to you and your family even if they are very technically hard to understand. It is an easy decision for me. I would never go to anyone else other than him. Simple as that.

Dr Yogesh Patel is a terrific 'listener'! He's patient & kind and was able to zero in on my painful GI diagnosis quickly. He was highly recommended by my NP, Julie Caley. After changing medication, I'm successfully re-gaining weight & can eat most of my preferred foods again! Thank you to Both Practitioners!
