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.

I love Dr. Patel. I needed to see an OBGYN and the wait at other providers was over a month, some over two months. Dr. Patel could see me right away. I was hesitant because it is true, she does not accept insurance, but I went anyway and felt it was worth the cost to be seen promptly by such a knowledgeable and kind doctor. She also did the dreaded Pap test quickly and painlessly. I've never experienced that before. She was the exact opposite of the doctor I saw the previous year at Women's Physicians and Surgeons in Freehold, who was rude and ageist.

Dr. Patel is one of the smartest, most personable, and kindest doctors I’ve ever seen, GYN or otherwise. She has a fantastic memory (she hadn’t seen me in almost 3 years, and she remembered details about my life that I was shocked she remembered) which indicates that she’s a caring doctor. I never feel rushed, always feel understood and most importantly, she lacks that condescension some doctors love to prescribe. I highly recommend Dr. Patel to anyone in need of a gynecologist.

Dr. Patel helped me so much, when I was diagnosed with endometrial cancer. She found it very quickly, and took care of everything I needed to have a speedy surgery! I can’t thank her enough for her professionalism, wonderful staff, and her kindness during this difficult time! Thank goodness now I’m fine!

Dr Patel is awesome. She's a real straight shooter (which some others who've left reviews apparently don't like!), but which I truly appreciate from someone who I'm trusting with subjective (aesthetic) decisions. She'll tell you what will ACTUALLY look good and work for you vs which procedures aren't worth your time. Her prices are extremely reasonable too, about 2/3 what I've been quoted at "med spas." Definitely trust my face and body here over other places!!

False advertising: Website says insurance is accepted, description states that Aetna is amongst the providers that is accepted. However when I called to make an appointment I was told that no insurance is accepted and a visitation is $150 up front.

Dr. Patel is wonderful! She made me feel 100% comfortable from day one, not only is she my gynecologist, but does my botox, hormone replacement therapy and much more! I recommend her to woman I come across as I feel more like a friend rather than just my doctor.... She is a real woman facing all the same challenges we are as we age and is so easy to talk to.

This doctor was by far the rudest person with a medical degree I have ever encountered. Yes i was late for my initital appointment but it was within the 15 min window. If you had to be at yout childs xmas party you should have scheduled appointments sooner. She insulted me and asked what my profession was which was not relevant. Also stated that she “assumed I was not a mother” so unprofessional. I was very upset. Maybe you should LISTEN to your patients first and you would not have bad reviews.

Dr. Patel has the worst bed side manner I have ever come across. I could hear her yelling at other patients as well since the walls in her office are paper thin. She yelled at me because of my UTI and basically told my it was my fault. Whether or not it was, instead of playing the blame game she should've empathized with her patient in pain and problem solved to find a solution. Instead, she just rolled her eyes at me and wrote me a script. I will never be returning to your practice again.
