I hesitated doing revision surgery. I was fortunate to see Dr. Patel’s patients and their results. They all looked natural and youthful. After a consultation he was very clear about what to expect. He spend time with me explaining what had gone wrong with my previous surgery and how he could address my concerns.. I am very happy with the results and would recommend him without hesitation.

my experience with Dr Patel was a wonderful experience the performance from the front office staff the ease and quickness of checking in to the operating room staff the kindness and professionalism of explaining the next steps and preparation plus Dr Patel's visit prior to the operation making sue everything was ok , his expertise and the results was perfect. The way the take care of you after the operation was remarkable I have never received such perfect care.

Dr Patel is wonderful at making your eye spams disappear. Every 4 months I go to Dr Patel for Botox injections around my eye. He injects above, below and on my eyelid above my lashes to control my eye spams. It takes all of about 5 minutes and the only thing I do for the pain is to apply Aspercreme with Lidocaine around my eye where he will do the injections. If you are experiencing spams in your eye go see Dr Patel. He is great.

Dr Patel is the best! He is extremely knowledgable and responsive. His work speaks for itself; I was convinced I would use him to address the bags under my eyes after seeing the extraordinary work he did with my friend. But maybe even better is his continued desire to ensure everything went well, and he even did a little touch up procedure with me after it became clear I needed it (no extra charge). He truly goes the extra mile with his work. He is friendly, professional and highly competent.
