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.

Phones or not answered nor voicemails returned...p
Based on other reviews I can see that Patel's office does not answer the phone or return voice mail messages. I will contact Steve Macklind's (Mercy CEO) office and let them deal with this regrettable performance level.

No call backs and no live people on phones
Was referred by PCP and simply called to get appointment. I called 8 times and never got a live person and left 2 messages but never received a call back. If that is what they provide as a new patient I have seen from reviews what they convey to existing patients. Why are doctors' offices so cavalier??

Office does not return calls, difficult to get ahold of people. Voicemails left, no responses. Underwent testing, had to badger for results, never got a call back from the doctor.

I thought Dr Patel was very good. He made sure I understood all about my kidney stones. He crused one that was too big to pass.He is now checking to see why I have so many stones and what we can do to prevent further stones. I thought he was very good.

Was always in a hurry and just pressed taking pain meds for a kidney stone. Left me go for over a month in pain and the day before surgery I finally passed it on my own. I felt like he just didn't care. If I wasn't in pain when I was in his office then I was fine.
