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.

Long Time Patient
Dr. Patel has been my primary care physician since he began his practice in Groton. He has diagnosed conditions correctly and referred me to specialists or PT when appropriate. He welcomes and respects my questions and insights. He is professional and personable. He returns phone calls and emails in a timely manner. Dr. Patel’s long term staff is wonderful. Occasionally over 28 years there have been l mediocre staff members. I haven’t seen them twice.

I have been going to Dr. Patel for over 6 years and have always had great interactions with the staff and r. Patel. He makes me feel comfortable, listens to my concerns, and makes me feel like I'm part of the decision on how to best treat any issues.

He was very arrogant and condescending towards me. I've never felt so belittled by a "medical professional". I was told that there was nothing wrong with me and discouraged any further diagnosis. I found a surgeon who identified abnormalities in my UT scan from several months before i saw Nimesh. A HIDA scan was performed and proved that my gallbladder was no longer functioning.
