I will reserve judgement until post op. However the Doc seems to be very bright & capable. He didn't set my expectations at an unrealistic level

Being an MD I am sure we never want to have to make a recommendation; however, life happens and I would recommend Dr Patel.

Dr. Patel was very efficient with the next effective steps to help with my shoulder. He also has a great sense of humor. Did not rush me, and was very gentle with those huge needles.
