  Dr. Patel and his intern (assistant?) were extremely courteous, professional, and to the point during this first consultation. They did not waste time and were very efficient in getting to the most important points and questions. They listened carefully to me and took this into consideration when deciding steps moving forward.

  I thought the doctor was nice but in a hurry. He did not give me much of a chance to ask questions. He barely touched on my first problem but not on second. I drove 5 1/2 hours and was very disappointed
