Very kind and patient with my 15 year old daughter, who was the patient. He spoke directly to her first and then asked me if there were any questions. Appointment did not take long from beginning to end.

I found DR Patel to be the best in his field. My elbow was shattered in over 30 peaces after the procedure I'm better than new! Can't say enough wonderful things about Dr Patel!

Dr. Patel takes care of my hands which have erosive OA and PsA. He can inject prednisone into my joints with minimal pain which is incredible. I also really like the staff there. They are always kind and respectful. That is rare these days! Thanks and well done Resurgens! And of course Dr. Patel. 👍🏻👍🏻

Dr. Patel is very knowledgeable, has great bedside manners, explained my situation in a manner that I understood and he made me feel very comfortable in his presence. He is very much a “people person” and shows that he cares about the well being of his patients.

Dr Patel and the entire staff were so pleasant to work with. The entire process of checking in, getting x-rays, and talking with the doctor was easy and I was treated with respect and caring. Highly recommend Resurgens for all orthopedic care.

Dr. Patel was absolutely GREAT, his knowledge of the hand and my it's functionality put me at easy, and his explanations made me feel as though he cared and not like, just another case. He has an amazing personality and his passion for his patience and job makes him the GREATEST.
